Every little bit of global warming makes the consequences worse so if we reach net zero emissions and stabilise global temperatures and stop them from continuing to rise, and we will stop things getting worse for changes in extreme weather but there is no going back. and the other exception to this is that sea level rising will continue for centuries or even thousands of years even if we manage to stabilise global temperatures and so there are very long—term consequences from our actions that we've already taken and actions we will take in the future. the big ice sheets will continue to melt...

We just don't know how much. the scientists say that the level of the oceans is bound to go up, almost whatever we do, maybe by half a metre or so by the end of the century, if emissions are brought under control, but maybe by a metre if they aren't. and of course, that would be devastating for millions of people living on coastlines around the world. but they also can't rule out a much larger rise, approaching two metres. it all depends whether the polar ice sheets start collapsing. the great ice sheets are already adding to the level of the sea, but this process may suddenly accelerate. scie...

Off the windows. this problem's only going to get worse with climate change. we're going to have, i fear, more and more heatwaves and they're going to be worse and worse, so that's why i think it makes sense to shade your windows now, start learning how to adapt. but some changes will be far tougher to deal with. the oceans will keep rising, we just don't know how much. the scientists are warning that there's going to be some rise in sea level really whatever we do. maybe half a metre by the end of the century if emissions are brought under control, or a metre if they aren't. and that would be...

Hello, and welcome to the programme. global warming is accelerating, and human influence is unequivically to blame — that's the warning from a damning new report from the un and its secretary general. antonio guteres says the evidence can not be denied: greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuel burning and deforestation are choking the planet and putting billions of people at immediate risk. it's the most comprehensive climate change study ever and is produced by hundreds of the world's top scientists from 66 countries. the report warns that the global average temprature rise could reach or ...
