06.05.2021 Limiting warming to 1.5°C halves sea level rise this century An international team of climate researchers, including glaciologist Fabien Maussion, provides new projections of future sea level rise from the melting of ice by the end of the 21st century. If the 1.5°C global warming target is met, sea level rise could be halved relative to current emissions pledges. Otherwise, there is a risk of up to 40 cm. The study was published in Nature. Sea level rise is caused by the melting of glaciers and continental ice sheets and is one of the most severe impac...
