People need to cut their emissions by 45% over the next decade and then reach net zero by 2050 to keep global warming below the 1.5°C threshold. This was stated by UN Secretary General António Guterres during the Austrian World Summit. “The window of opportunity to prevent the worst effects of the climate crisis is rapidly closing. Our planet has already warmed by 1.2°C. Let me be clear: national commitments are not enough. While the authorities of many countries are playing for time, inaction leads to dire consequences. Climate change is already being felt and about half of humanity is in the danger zone,” said Guterres
