Forecasters Warn , Earth May Hit Critical
Warming Threshold , Before 2026.
'Time' reports that the Earth is inching closer
to a warming threshold that multiple international
agreements are aimed at preventing.
According to teams of meteorologists around the world,
there is almost a 50-50 chance that the planet will
reach that threshold within the next five years. .
The warning prediction was issued on May 9 by a
team of 11 different forecast centers working with
the World Meteorological Organization.
'Time' reports that just last year, the same
forecasters said that the odds of hitting
the temperature threshold were at 40%. .
Ten years earlier, they said
the odds were just at 10%. .
In this year's report, the team also predicted
that there is a 93% chance the planet will
experience five years of record-breaking heat. .
We’re going to see continued warming in line with what is expected with climate change, Leon Hermanson, U.K. Met Office senior scientist, via 'Time'.

The world has already
warmed approximately
1.1 degrees Celsius since the late 1800s. .
In 2018, the United Nations
warned of dramatic and dangerous effects on
the world if warming exceeds 1.5 degrees Celsius.

Regardless of what is predicted here,
we are very likely to exceed 1.5 degrees Celsius in the next decade or so,
but it doesn’t necessarily mean that we
are committed to this in the long term —

change is not worthwhile, Gavin Schmidt, NASA top climate scientist, via 'Time'.
