New research for the first time links wildfire risks and impacts in western North America to carbon emissions traceable to the world’s largest fossil fuel and cement companies. Previous studies have quantified the share of increasing average temperatures, rising sea levels , and ocean acidification attributable to major industrial emitters.

As a result, climate change is already affecting every inhabited region on Earth, and impacts such as sea level rise, ocean acidification, and permafrost melt are inevitable and near-irreversible, leaving only their extent open to question.

As this year comes to an end rising emissions are exhausting our carbon budgets. Agricultural shortfalls will be further exacerbated by ocean acidification, which is another corollary of rising levels of atmospheric CO2. Many eco-systems will be lost and sea ice will disappear as will glaciers.

Taking immediate action to slash emissions towards net zero by 2050 could make a monumental difference to the level, frequency, and breadth of growing climate impacts, the scientists emphasise. Without deep carbon pollution cuts now, the 1.5-degree We need immediate action on energy. degree goal will fall quickly out of reach.

For years (and we mean many years), the ocean helped us mitigate the early effects of human emissions by absorbing greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide and heat, from the atmosphere. As a result, more than 90 percent of the warming that happened on Earth between 1971 and 2010 occurred in the ocean.
