What happened

Well supportedReported by 10 independent outlets

The United Nations Environment Programme determined that the world is breaching the 1.5°C climate target, stating that the chance of maintaining this goal has effectively closed. Global warming is currently around 1.4°C above pre-industrial times, and a larger overshoot of the 1.5°C limit is considered imminent and unavoidable. In 2025, global greenhouse gas emissions stood at 58.4 gigatonnes of CO2 equivalent, a figure roughly unchanged from 2024.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The report indicates that governments are failing to translate long-term climate commitments into effective short-term measures. To prevent temperatures from rising far beyond the threshold, the United Nations Environment Programme warns that emissions must be reduced by 18% over the next four years and by 45% by 2045.
