Global warming is set to cross 1.5°C, pushing climate risks and impacts to increasingly dangerous heights, a new UNEP report warns.
Predicted impacts include extreme weather and threats to human health and economies.
Action now can still limit the magnitude and duration of the peak and preserve the possibility of returning to or below 1.5°C through an ‘overshoot, peak, and decline’ pathway

“It may not be perfect, but it has the elements needed to eliminate the global shipping industry’s emissions by 2050 and help ensure that the countries facing the greatest climate risks with the least capacity to respond are not further harmed in the maritime energy transition. "
McCullough pointed out that it’s taken years of negotiating and compromise by IMO member states to get to the Net-Zero Framework. seanews.co.uk/environment/ne…
"It must be part of solution. As ocean temps hit record highs increasing storm intensity & threatening marine life, food supplies & coastal communities, there's no time for further delay in addressing roughly 1 billion tons of CO2 shipping spews into atmosphere every yr.”
Delaine McCullough, Shipping Program Director @OurOcean , highlighted that shipping is the backbone of the global economy. Estimates of shipping trade’s market top $14 trillion, but it’s also a major source of climate pollution, ocean & global warming.
