The horrors don't end there. Warming will continue, no matter what we do, for the next 30 years, even in a best case scenario where world leaders unite to reduce emissions to zero very quickly.But the good news — and there is good news — is that if this scenario plays out within the next decade, we can cap the increase at around 1.5 degrees Celsius.
If global emissions are cut back to net zero within about 10 years, which will admittedly require geopolitical consensus such as the world has literally never seen, the planet will essentially stop warming by 2050. In less optimistic circumstances, where world leaders continue to essentially ignore climate change, the world will warm by three to six degrees Celsius by 2100, and much of the planet will become uninhabitable.
