  1. "Plans to end global warming hinge on driving net greenhouse gas emissions to zero, plus or minus a few gigatonnes (Gt). It’s not going well.

    CO2 emissions hit an all-time high last year, and for the first time average temperatures on Earth rose 1.5 °C above preindustrial levels.

    To hold warming below 2 °C, a total of 525 to 755 Gt of carbon dioxide will need to be removed from the atmosphere by 2100. That total will increase if global emissions do not start falling quickly.

    From 2019 to 2023, just 9 Gt of CO2 was removed, 99.9 percent through managed forestry.

  3. Conditions on Earth may be moving outside the 'safe operating space' for humanity, according to dozens of scientists

    "The nine boundaries, first set out in a 2009 paper, aim to establish a set of defined 'limits' on changes humans are making to the planet – from pumping out planet-heating pollution to clearing forests for farming. Beyond these limits, the theory goes, the risk of destabilizing conditions on Earth increases dramatically."
