LONDON: Thirty eight scientific advisers to governments have urged leaders at the upcoming COP26 climate conference to focus on detailed action plans, not just pledges, on how to keep a 1.5 degree Celsius temperature limit within reach.

This week, a United Nations report said current pledges put the world on track for an average 2.7 degrees Celsius temperature rise and a separate report in August warned that global warming caused by greenhouse gas emissions could breach 1.5 degrees Celsius in the next two decades.

The advisers said governments must develop long-term strategies based on scientific evidence to scale up ways to decarbonise economies over the next decade, have clear and detailed policies and regular reviews of emissions reduction plans."The 1.5 degrees Celsius is achievable provided action is taken.
