Some Regions Already Experience Warming Like a World Past 1.5°C

Some Regions Already Experience Warming Like a World Past 1.5°C

The world is heading toward 1.5°C of warming, the threshold named in the Paris Agreement.

But warming is not felt the same way everywhere.

Some regions are already experiencing warming like a world past that threshold.

This means the global level does not describe what every place is experiencing.

The difference matters because some places are already living with conditions associated with warming beyond 1.5°C.

The information available does not say what happens next.
