Planet’s first catastrophic climate reached, report says, with facing ‘widespread dieback’
Unless global heating is reduced to 1.2C ‘as fast as possible’, warm water coral reefs will not remain ‘at any meaningful scale’, a report by 160 scientists from 23 countries warns

And almost everybody don't give a fuck, but the last version of chatGPT, yes. We are heading towards a catastrophic 21st century.

The earth has reached its first catastrophic tipping point linked to greenhouse gas emissions, with warm water coral reefs now facing a long-term decline and risking the livelihoods of hundreds of millions of people, according to a new report.

Almost top of TheGuardian Europe news this morning.

"Planet’s first catastrophic #climate #tippingPoint reached...
Unless global heating is reduced to 1.2C ‘as fast as possible’, warm water coral reefs will not remain ‘at any meaningful scale’, report by 160 scientists from 23 countries..."

Me: Scuba diving around a coral reef in the '90s was THE most magical beautiful thing I have ever done in my life. By far. Chosen not to repeat, due to the massive carbon-cost of getting there, but to deny all future generations this opportunity?

REPORT
Global Tipping Points Report 2025

The world has entered a new reality. #GlobalWarming will soon exceed 1.5°C. This puts humanity in the danger zone where multiple #climate #TippingToints pose catastrophic risks to billions of people.
Already warm-water coral reefs are crossing their thermal #TippingPoint and experiencing unprecedented dieback, threatening the livelihoods of hundreds of millions who depend on them. Polar ice sheets are approaching tipping points, committing the world to several metres of irreversible sea-level rise that will affect hundreds of millions.

Cover
Global Tipping Points Report 2025Risks of Earth system tipping points increase with global warming
Sources: Global Tipping Points Report 2025 and Armstrong McKay et al., 2022Preventing Earth system tipping points
requires a change in strategy

o The risk of activating Earth system tipping processes exists
at current levels of global warming and increases with every
0.1°C and every year of overshooting the globally agreed goal
of 1.5°C.

o Current climate mitigation measures are not sufficient to
prevent tipping events; they need to be accelerated and
coupled with measures addressing non-climate drivers, such as
deforestation of the Amazon rainforest.

o Preventing tipping points requires ‘frontloaded’ mitigation
pathways that minimise peak global temperature, the duration
of the overshoot period above 1.5°C and the return time below
1.5°C with immediate, comprehensive transition away from
fossil fuels.

o Sustainable carbon dioxide removal approaches need to be
rapidly scaled up to help return the global mean temperature to
and then below 1.5°C.

Thanks to their greedy, exploitative colonisation of this beautiful planet, humans are ruining it for themselves and the species on which they depend faster than they think. independent.co.uk/climate-chan

We’re potentially looking at a singularity event for cyber attackers. Key parts of the attack chain are becoming automated and integrated: persistence, obfuscation, command-and-control, and endpoint evasion.

Death tolls and the billion-dollar losses from wildfires have stacked up around the world, so too have the rising temperatures. It is unambiguous and it is clear climate change is playing a role. These aren’t just bigger fires, they’re fires occurring under increasingly extreme weather conditions that make them unstoppable.

The hope that followed the signing of the Paris climate agreement in 2016 has long gone as the global community has failed utterly to rein in emissions, which have headed remorselessly upwards ever since. And there is little sign of this changing anytime soon.

Fossil fuel corporations are on track to nearly quadruple, by the end of this decade, the amount of extracted oil and gas from newly approved projects.

The world’s oceans have failed a key planetary health check for the first time, primarily due to the burning of fossil fuels, a report has shown.

In the report, all of the other six breached boundaries – climate change, biosphere integrity, land system change, freshwater use, biogeochemical flows, and novel entities – showed a worsening trend.
