> A UNEP report launched in Nairobi warns that breaching the Paris Agreement’s 1.5-degree Celsius temperature limit is becoming increasingly likely, raising risks of sea-level rise, coral reef collapse, catastrophic wildfires and glacier loss. It urges governments to cut greenhouse gas emissions, shift to clean energy and pursue adaptation and mitigation together to keep any overshoot small and brief.
