We emitted what the eartg can absorb (3Gteq) back in 1990. Since then, emissions trippled.
Net zero is not enough, there is still a lot of CO2 in the atmosphere, so the temperature will reach +3°C.
- ZeroGravitas 4y agoNet Zero by 2050 and peaking global emissions before 2030 should be enough to meet the 1.5C target according to the IPCC. Assuming we follow that plan and don't hit any tipping points, we should stay under 3C, but yeah it's possible.
