GERICS unpack climate information for strengthening the resilience of cultural heritage in times of anthropogenic climate change
Half of the IPCC Scenarios to Limit Warming Don’t Work The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change showcased 50 scenarios to limit global warming to 1.5°C above preindustrial temperatures. A new study finds that only half of those scenarios are realistic. A combine harvests corn stover (corn leaves, stalks, and cobs), one of the chief fuels in bioenergy production.

Of the over 400 climate scenarios assessed in the 1.5°C report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), only around 50 scenarios avoid significantly overshooting 1.5°C. Of those only around 20 make realistic assumptions on mitigation options, for instance the rate and scale of carbon removal from the atmosphere or extent of tree planting, a new study shows. All 20 scenarios need to pull at least one mitigation lever at ''challenging'' rather than ''reasonable'' levels.
