The world can avoid the worst effects of rising sea levels if the world's countries are able to limit warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius, a study released Wednesday found.
The study, posted at Nature.com, found that the rate of melting sea ice could be cut in half should countries meet the ambitious target for limiting warming. Currently, the world is on pace to warm 3 degrees by 2100.
"We find that limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius would halve the land ice contribution to twenty-first-century sea level rise, relative to current emissions pledges," wrote the study's authors, Sophie Nowicki of the University of Buffalo, Tamsin Edwards of Kings College of London, and Thomas Zwinger of the University of Helsinki.
