Earth to exhaust 50% of carbon budget for 1.5°C in 3 yrs: Experts
The 50% remaining carbon budget would be exhausted in a little more than 3 years if global carbon dioxide emissions remain at 2024 levels, scientists have warned. Breaching the target would increase the extreme weather events that are already devastating communities around the world. By the start of 2025, carbon budget had shrunk to 130 billion tonnes, according to study.
