The weekly round-up on the climate crisis and data on carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. What is the future of the planet?In what direction is global warming going?Is there hope to avoid the worst?Are we still in time to stop the rise in temperatures?It's causing a lot of discussion survey of Guardian which asked 380 climate scientists from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) what they predict for the future of our planet.According to the majority of experts contacted, by 2100 global temperatures will rise by at least 2.5°C compared to pre-industrial levels, almost half a global warming of 3°C, while just 6% believe that the 1.5°C agreed with the Paris Agreement in 2015. The limit of 1.5°C has been indicated by the international community as a threshold beyond which not to go in order to avoid it the triggering of dangerous chain effects which could irreparably damage some ecosystems of our planet with catastrophic consequence...

The weekly round-up on the climate crisis and data on carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. According to new research published on February 14th on Nature, nearly half of the Amazon will face several “unprecedented” stressors that could push the forest toward a major tipping point by 2050.The largest rainforest in the world he's already under pressure due to climate change, deforestation, biodiversity loss and extreme weather conditions. About 20% of the Amazon it has already been deforested and another 6% are “highly degraded.” According to several studies, the Brazilian section of the Amazon is now a net “source” of carbon, rather than a “sink,” due to a number of factors including deforestation. The scholars have long warned that climate change and human-driven deforestation could push the Amazon forest beyond the “tipping point,” a threshold that, if exceeded, would see the “disappearance&rdquo...

The weekly round-up on the climate crisis and data on carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. “Beyond imagination”, “Farcical”, “Lies”, “When you put Count Dracula in charge of the Blood Bank…”.The statements made public by COP28 President Sultan Al Jaber have sparked a wave of global disapproval Guardian and from Center for Climate Reporting last Sunday. Two weeks ago during an online meeting, moderated by Mary Robinson, the former President of Ireland, now an important supporter of the ecological transition, Al Jaber - who, in addition to the United Nations Climate Conference underway in Dubai, is also head of Adnoc, the national oil company of the United Arab Emirates, and Masdar, the state renewable energy company – he stated [min.4] that there is no scientific evidence to demonstrate that phasing out fossil fuels is necessary to limit global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels, and that phasing out fossil fuels would not allow for a sustainable development unless...

The weekly round-up on the climate crisis and data on carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. More than 70,000 diplomats, politicians, business leaders and environmental advocates from around the world are expected to attend the annual United Nations Climate Change Conference which this year will be held in Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates, from November 30 to December 12. In fact, every year delegates from almost 200 states meet to discuss how to limit the increase in global temperatures and avoid the most disastrous consequences of climate change.This year's conference could be especially important as carbon emissions continue to hit record highs and the planet approaches potential tipping points that could send global warming out of control and trigger irreversible changes. Life on Earth is 'under siege' by man The Dubai summit comes after a summer of extreme weather events at all latitudes and in the midst of wars in Europe and the Middle East which could further...
