Will global warming ‘stop’ as soon as net-zero emissions are reached? (WEF)

Uncategorized
Zeke Hausfather – US Analyst, Carbon Brief
  • Evidence suggests that global warming is likely to stop once carbon dioxide emissions reach net zero.
  • This is not a new discovery – the scientific community has recognised that zero CO2 emissions would probably stop temperatures from rising since at least 2008.
  • However, even if the world had zero CO2 emissions, there are large remaining uncertainties associated with what happens to other greenhouse gases.
  • Also, the effects of previous global warming triggers may still continue to occur for many years.
  • This research explores the predicted outcome of different ‘net zero’ scenarios and what they would mean for our planet.
