Interesting thread by @Peters_Glen on this years Global Carbon Budget
📢Global Carbon Budget 2024📢 Despite some predicting a peak in global fossil CO2 emissions, we estimate growth of 0.8% [-0.3% to 1.9%] in 2024. Maybe a peak next year? Is it all bad news, or can we find some good news? 1/

Data released today by @CopernicusECMWF shows: 🌡️ It is now virtually certain that 2024 will be the warmest year on record. It is also virtually certain that the annual temperature for 2024 will be more than 1.5°C above the pre-industrial level. #ClimateCrisis #COP29

Current policies are taking us towards a catastrophic 3.1° temperature rise by the end of the century. Affordable, existing technologies can achieve the emissions reductions we need to meet the 1.5° limit. #COP29 must drive a surge in climate ambition. unep.org/events/publication-…

👇 Excellent thread by @JoeriRogelj on the 2024 @UNEP #EmissionsGap report. Clearly highlights the need for increased #ClimateAmbition and #ClimateAction
Another year, another climate gap. 🌍🔥🌡️ It's the 15th time I joined the lead author team of the @UNEP #Emissionsgap report. How high are global emissions? What have countries pledged? And is this all aligned with the Paris Agreement? Let’s dig in with a 🧵/1

Without climate change, #HurricaneMilton would have made landfall as a Category 2 instead of a Category 3 storm. Furthermore, #Milton's rainfall & wind were both more likely & intense due to climate change, according to our latest analysis.🧵 📰ow.ly/aSzn50TJOHP
