It’s also urgent because the oceans act like a flywheel, making sure that cuts in emission of greenhouse gases will have a lagged effect on global warming. Climate change adaptation was addressed in the Paris Agreement from 2015, the Climate Adaptation Summit in January 2021 , and will be one of four key priorities during the upcoming COP26.

By Anders Lorenzen On the eve of the COP28 climate summit, scientists at the United Nations (UN) have warned that the world is on track for 3 degrees C of warming by the end of this decade. This is double the target that world leaders agreed to in 2015, when the Paris Agreement deal was struck and subsequently implemented.

A friend asked me if a discussion paper published on Statistics Norway’s website, ‘ To what extent are temperature levels changing due to greenhouse gas emissions? ’, was purposely timed for the next climate summit ( COP28 ). I don’t know the answer to his question. But this discussion paper is problematic for sure.

Climate scientists say the world needs to cut greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 43% by 2030, compared to 2019 levels. Only then is the world going to have any chance of meeting the 2015 Paris Agreement goal of keeping temperature increases well below 2 degrees C.

ENSO is so influential that climate scientists have dedicated decades to tracking and predicting its irregular cycles. Researchers are also studying how ENSO will be affected by climate change. These events are already in motion and will happen regardless of short-term emissions mitigation efforts, according to the authors.
