Global Warming Nears 1.5°C Threshold, 90% of Projected Rise Already Occurred

An international study published in *Nature Climate Change* reveals that approximately 90-94% of the warming expected at a 1.5°C global temperature rise has already occurred across many regions worldwide. Researchers predict that if greenhouse gas emissions continue at current levels, the 1.5°C threshold will be reached by around 2029. The analysis, which included 46 global regions, found that human-driven warming has impacted even areas with limited historical temperature data, such as the African tropics. This research is crucial for predicting climate-related damages and developing mitigation policies.
