To stop warming around 1.7 °C we will have to reduce emissions yearly by 1.6 Gigatonnes of CO2 (or 2.1 Gigatonnes of CO2 equivalent) and reach net zero in 24 years — by 2050.

Immediate Transformative Action Required: To achieve net zero and to stabilize temperatures, the pace and scale of climate action globally must match the rate and scale of the climate challenge.

To stop warming around 1.5 °C we must yearly reduce CO2 emissions by 6 Gigatonnes (or 8 Gigatonnes of CO2 equivalent) and reach net zero in around 6 years — by 2032.

Carbon Budget: The remaining carbon budget for a 50% likelihood to stay under 1.5 °C of global warming is only around 130 gigatonnes, around 3 years' worth of current emissions.

Sea Level Rise: Since the start of the 20th century, global sea levels have risen by approximately 23 cm. Between 2015 and 2025, the level rose by about 3.5 cm — an average rate of ~3.5 mm per year.

Paris Agreement: Reaching 1.5°C global warming on a long-term basis is inevitable in around four years if we don't take the immediate, transformative action needed to reduce emissions from fossil fuels and deforestation to net zero.

Greenhouse Gas Emissions: In 2025, CO2 emissions from fossil fuels continue a rising trend to an all-time high of 38.1 gigatonnes. Emissions from land-use drop slightly to 4.1 gigatonnes. Data for other greenhouse gases will be available later this year.

Temperatures: For 2025 the human-caused warming was 1.38°C, and the observed global average temperature 1.39°C, dropping from 1.5°C in 2024, which was driven by El Niño and warmer-than-average North Atlantic waters. Human-caused warming has increased at a decadal rate of ~0.27°C, an all-time high.

Trend: Emissions fell by roughly 38.3 megatonnes CO2e a year over the ten years to 2024, a 0.6% yearly decline, slower than the 4% yearly decline the world needs to limit warming to around 1.7 °C. 3 of 6

The carbon budget for holding 1.5 °C is almost gone, yet the path is known: emissions must fall to net zero by 2032 to limit warming to 1.5 °C, or by 2050 to limit it to 1.7 °C. The hard part is whether a species clever enough to measure the danger is wise enough to answer it.
