The United Nations revealed that greenhouse gas levels hit a record high in 2020, with clear signs that nations are far off track from the Paris Climate Agreement’s goal of limiting global heating to 1.5 degrees Celsius. 

United Nations, October 27 (RHC)-- The United Nations revealed that greenhouse gas levels hit a record high in 2020, with clear signs that nations are far off track from the Paris Climate Agreement’s goal of limiting global heating to 1.5 degrees Celsius. 

Petteri Taalas, head of the World Meteorological Organization, said: “We have again broken records in main greenhouse gases: carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide. … At the moment, we are heading towards 2.5 to 3 degrees warming rather than 1.5 to 2 degrees.”

Meanwhile, a new report finds wealthy nations are falling well short of their pledge to mobilize $100 billion a year to help poorer nations adapt to the climate crisis.
