Global warming is causing the planet to warm at a much faster rate than before, leading to rapid changes in climate and more extreme weather events. This has serious implications for the environment, health and economy that are irreversible unless drastic action is taken. Even if the climate were not changing due to global warming, humans have exhausted their “carbon budget”, meaning carbon dioxide emissions from human activities have already led to significant warming. As such, it’s important for us to reduce our emissions now in orderto avoid irreparable consequences in the future.

While the planet's climate has always been and will likely always be changing, global warming presents an especially urgent threat because it is happening at a much faster rate than natural climate change. It also has serious implications for the environment, public health and economies around the world.
