dr friederike 0tto is senior lecturer in climate science at imperial college london and one of the authors of todays ipcc report. i don t think it is time to despair, i think what this report particularly shows, that other reports previously have not shown us, is that we do have all the knowledge and all the technology that we need to get to net zero, so we don t have to, we have no excuses any more to wait. we just have to implement them now. so despairing will not stop climate change, but acting will. if the technologies are there and all we need to do is use them, what s stopping us? what is stopping us is the political will and the sense of urgency. so, we do have the technology and the knowledge, and we also. fhere is also enough money in the world, but at the moment, there is also enough money
the rate of temperature rise in the last half century is the highest in 2,000 years. concentrations of carbon dioxide are at their highest in at least two million years. the climate time bomb is ticking. let s look through the key findings of the ipcc report. it condenses eight years of climate science from six reports published since 2014. the report says the world is expected to warm above 1.5 degrees centigrade by the early 20305, and that nations will need to make a rapid and deep reduction in emissions across all sectors this decade to prevent the planet from overheating dangerously beyond that level. but it also adds there are multiple, feasible and effective options available now to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to climate change. here s dr friederike 0tto,

they say the world is expected to warm above 1.5 degrees centigrade by the early 20305. mr guterres has been speaking at the launch of the report and said everyone needs to work together quickly to achieve the climate change goals. today i am presenting a plan to supercharge efforts. it starts with parties immediately hitting the fast forward button on the net zero deadlines to get to global zero by humans are responsible for virtually all global heating over the last 200 years. the rate of temperature rise in the last half century as the highest in 2000 years. concentrations of carbon dioxide are at their highest in at least 2 million years. the climate time bomb is ticking. i m joined now by dr friederike 0tto, senior lecturer
