Both stronger 2030 targets and 1.5°C-aligned 2035 NDCs are needed to keep 1.5°C alive, argues this briefing. Without both, we risk overshooting the 1.5°C limit higher and longer, crossing dangerous tipping points, and losing sight of the Paris Agreement goals.

This briefing provides a comprehensive overview of what the science is saying now about the 1.5°C warming limit – what it means, what is at stake, and what actions are needed to limit the risks of overshoot and safeguard a liveable future.
