Overshoot: Exploring the Implications of Meeting 1.5°C Climate Goal 'from Above'
The first-ever international conference on the topic of "overshoot" was held in Laxenburg, Austria, bringing together nearly 200 researchers and legal experts.
The conference discussed future temperature pathways where the Paris Agreement's target to limit global warming to 1.5°C is met "from above, rather than below".
- Overshoot pathways exceed the 1.5°C limit before being brought back down through carbon removal techniques.
- Researchers explored the feasibility of overshoot pathways and relevant legal frameworks.
- The potential consequences of a rise and fall in global temperatures on climate action, society, and Earth's climate systems were also discussed.
Meeting the 1.5°C climate goal "from above" has significant implications for climate action and the Earth's systems.
