A new study reveals that the climate goal of limiting warming to 1.5°C may not prevent catastrophic sea-level rise. Scientists warn that even at current temperatures, polar ice sheets are melting rapidly, posing an existential threat to coastal communities.
Scientists warn that sea level rise will become unmanageable even at 1.5C of global heating, leading to catastrophic inland migration and severe flooding in coastal cities. Urgent action is needed to mitigate these impacts!
