flag Global warming is projected to reach 2.6°C if countries meet Paris pledges, up from 4°C, with Australia facing 25 more extreme heat days annually.

flag Global warming is projected to reach 2.6°C above pre-industrial levels if countries meet their Paris Agreement pledges, a major improvement from the 4°C forecast before the treaty. flag Australia, warming faster than the global average, would see 25 more extreme heat days per year under this scenario—far fewer than the 59 at 4°C. flag Heatwaves like those in 2019 are now 2.5 times more likely and 0.9°C hotter due to human influence, with their frequency rising 38% over the past decade. flag Despite progress, atmospheric carbon continues to rise, the past decade is the hottest on record, and global temperatures have already increased by about 1.4°C. flag Scientists confirm a climate tipping point has been crossed, with 83.7% of coral reefs affected by bleaching by April 2025. flag Australia’s tropical rainforests have also reversed from carbon sinks to net emitters, releasing 0.93 tonnes of carbon per hectare annually due to heat-driven tree deaths. flag The Paris Agreement signatories will meet in Belem, Brazil, to discuss accelerating the shift from fossil fuels.
