Climate Tipping Points Crossed Before COP30
Scientists warn that global warming is reaching dangerous new levels faster than anticipated, leading to an almost irreversible decline in the world's coral reefs.
This has been described as the first "tipping point" in the collapse of ecosystems driven by climate change, according to the Global Tipping Points report authored by 160 researchers worldwide.
The alarm comes from the Global Tipping Points report, just weeks before the COP30 climate summit.
The report warns that the Amazon system faces possible collapse if the global temperature rises more than 1.5 degrees Celsius due to ongoing deforestation, lowering previous estimates of the critical temperature threshold for the region.
The study synthesizes crucial science to estimate irreversible thresholds, highlighting the urgent need for action ahead of the COP30 climate summit in Brazil.
