Missing a target doesn’t mean the sense of emergency should fade. What it must do is stop politicians dithering – and fast, says Bill McKibben

That’s great Matt! Good luck to you and the @ICCInet pavilion because BOLD action is required. As I pointed out the article below is based on a collective call to ACTION from @WCRP_climate @SCAR_Tweets @ISC @ICCInet. Decision makers must ACT NOW. @COP28_UAE.

Important push on climate action here from @naish_tim. This message is not just Tim's. At COP28 I and many others @ICCInet will be repeating many times the critical need to stay below 1.5C. COP28: Earth’s frozen zones are in trouble - are we listening?.

4 billion people at risk from sea level rise, melting glaciers and fresh water availability. The polar ice sheets, glaciers, and Arctic permafrost all have irreversible thresholds at 1.5-2C of global warming.

There is no more time because you can’t negotiate with the melting point of ice Read the TC piece and reports and decs therein and get your decision makers to act now. @ICCInet @AntaPlatform @SCAR_Tweets @CliC_WCRP @ISC @COP28_UAE.

I agree with this in terms of adaptation planing & decision making - we know enough. We must adapt to at least 20 cm of global SLR by 2060 & 50 cm by 2100. The rate of future sea level rise depends on us and the Antarctic ice sheet, but we must strive to understand AIS response.
