QUESTIONS 1, 2 and 3
The world is getting warm fast
Global warming surpassed 1.5°C for the first time.
It was more than the target which world leaders set
in 2015.
Experts worry about the impacts which rising
temperature has on nature and food systems. World
leaders signed international agreements like the
Paris Agreement, but extreme weather events
worldwide show us that we need to do more and do
it quickly.
Good things are happening, for example, the US
invested a trillion dollars into new technologies and
China wants to make more renewable energy. But
it is still not enough and we need more action to deal
with the negative impacts of climate change.
