Limiting warming to 1.5☌ rather than 2☌ can help reduce these risks, but the impacts the world experiences will depend on the specific greenhouse gas emissions ‘pathway’ taken.


An average warming of 1.5☌ across the whole globe raises the risk of heatwaves and heavy rainfall events, amongst many other potential impacts. However, they are not spread uniformly across the globe, and different parts of the world experience impacts differently. Summary : The impacts of climate change are being felt in every inhabited continent and in the oceans. Zougmoré (Burkina Faso, Mali)įAQ 3.1: What are the Impacts of 1.5☌ and 2☌ of Warming?
