50 top scientists warned on Thursday in a sweeping climate science update.

World leaders will be confronted with the new data at the critical COP28 climate summit later this year in Dubai, where a “Global Stocktake” at the UN talks will assess progress toward the 2015 Paris Agreement’s temperature goals. That budget has shrunk by half since the UN’s climate science advisory body, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change , gathered data for its most recent benchmark report in 2021, according to the Forster and colleagues, many of whom were core IPCC contributors.emissions of carbon dioxide, methane and other drivers of warming generated mostly by burning fossil fuels must not exceed 250 billion tonnes , they reported.

Co-author Valerie Masson-Delmotte, a co-chair of the 2021 IPCC report, said the new data should be a “wake-up call” ahead of the COP28 summit, even if there is evidence that the increase in greenhouse gases has slowed.
