If we stop at 1 degree celcius
What happens if we stop now, if we take all necessary climate action and reach net zero emissions?
Explore the opportunities of immediate climate action, and slide further to investigate the consequences we face if the temperatures continue to increase.
Necessary measures
Immediate and unified climate action.
Cooperation of people, states and the entire humanity.
0,15 m sea level rise: 20% of global population will be exposed to 100-year floods.
Protection of 50% of marine and freshwater areas
0,15 m sea level rise: 20% of global population will be exposed to 100-year floods.
More just distribution of resources
Increase education
Protection of 30% of woodlands and weatlands. Active restoration of damaged areas of woodland and wetland
Rapid switch to renewable energy sources.
0,15 m sea level rise: 20% of global population will be exposed to 100-year floods.
Protection of areas of rainforest.
Active replanting of rainforest
Effects
1,5 degrees celcius
Explore the changes that might come if the average temperature reaches 1,5 degrees celcius above pre-industrial temperature.
Globally
Increased frequency, intensity and duration of extreme events in all known ecosystems: marine, terrestrial, freshwater, coastal
0,15 m sea level rise: 20% of global population will be exposed to 100-year floods.
0,15 m sea level rise: 20% of global population will be exposed to 100-year floods

114,3 million people are affected by drought monthly
30% reduction in rainforest biomass
severe economic impacts that will rise exponentially with global warming
37,8% increase in fire risk
3-14% of species are very likely to face extinction
3-14% of species are very likely to face extinction.
Arctic
3-14% of species are very likely to face extinction
Global clacier loss 18+-13% annually

Ice free arctic every 100 years
2 degrees celcius
Explore the changes that might come if the average temperature reaches 2 degrees celcius above pre-industrial temperature. These effects come in addition to the effects presented at 1,5 degrees Celcius.
Globally
3-14% of species are very likely to face extinction
3-18% of species are very likely to face extinction
Ecosystem vulnerability increases with 40-50%
