"At this point it is virtually certain we will blow through [the 1.5C] target."

'"On our current path... we will reach that 1.5-degree limit sometime in the 2030s."

"Without immediate and deep emissions reductions across all sectors, it will be impossible [to limit global warming to 1.5C]"

"We are still nowhere near the scale and pace of emission reductions required to put us on track toward a 1.5C world."

We won't have "extreme cases like of 4 degrees [Celsius] warming," but will "miss the 2-degree goal."

"[C]utting our emissions in half in 10 years only gives us a 50% chance of staying below 1.5 degrees."

Keeping global warming to 1.5C is "entirely doable" and "simply a matter of political willpower."

Will Global Warming Be Limited to 1.5°C or "Well Below" 2°C?

Will There Be an End to Fossil Fuels, and If So When?

Renewable energy sources including solar and wind power generated more electricity than coal globally for the first time in the first half of 2025, according to analysis by energy think tank Ember that examined data from 88 countries representing 93% of worldwide demand.</span

Renewable energy sources including solar and wind power generated more electricity than coal globally for the first time in the first half of 2025, according to analysis by energy think tank Ember that examined data from 88 countries representing 93% of worldwide demand.

Global solar generation increased by 31% in the first six months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, meeting 83% of the worldwide increase in electricity demand, while wind power expanded by approximately 7.7% during the same timeframe.</span
