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

May 7, 2021

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.
