Scientists warn of permanent cryosphere damage from overshooting 1.5C
Original: Cryosphere faces permanent damage when world overshoots 1.5C, scientists warn
Scientists are warning that the world's frozen regions — glaciers, ice sheets and permafrost — will suffer permanent damage if global temperatures overshoot the 1.5C limit before being brought back down. The findings suggest that even a temporary breach of the Paris Agreement target could lock in irreversible losses in the cryosphere, with long-term consequences for sea levels and water supplies.
Why now: New scientific findings highlight irreversible risks to ice and frozen regions if climate targets are temporarily exceeded
