“ The world crosses the critical threshold of global warming faster than expected, says 160 researchers from all over the world. Scientists warn that coral reefs are already on the verge of irreversible extinction, which can be the first major “turning point” of ecosystem destruction caused by climate change. Source: Reuters, Global Fractures Report: Details: The study summarizes the latest climate change. The authors warn that the planet is in the phase when the destruction of natural ecosystems can be irreversible. Scientists are amazed at the speed of climate change. According to UN and EU scientific institutions, the average global temperature has already increased by 1.3-1.4 degrees Celsius compared to the pre-industrial period. The last two years have become the warmest in the history of observations, and severe heat in the ocean has led to the death of 84% of the world’s coral reefs, and in some cases, to their complete death. Coral reefs are vital because they support about a quarter of marine life. According to scientists, in order to restore coral reefs, the world must dramatically activate climate protection measures to lower the temperature to a level by only 1 degree above the average pre -industrial figure. Scientists have also reduced the threshold of dangerous warming for the tropical forests of Amazon in Brazil: at the current rate of felling, they can disappear even with increasing average global temperature by only 1.5 ° C. Another serious anxiety is the threat of a key oceanic current – the Atlantic meridional interspersed circulation (AMOC), which plays a crucial role in providing soft winters in northern Europe. Its weakening can lead to sharp weather anomalies and global destabilization of climate. “Changes in the climate and the biosphere are happening very quickly and tragic,” said the leading author of the report, Ecologist Tim Lenton of the University of Extener. Despite the alarming forecasts, Lenton also noted the positive features, including the gradual refusal of the world from fossil fuels. According to the Non -Commercial Analytical Center EMBER, 2025 for the first time renewable energy exceeded coal by electricity production. At the COP30 Climate Summit, which will take place in November in Brazil, scientists will urge countries to intensify efforts to reduce carbon emissions and preserve natural ecosystems. “The new report clearly shows that every year the scale and effects of climate change are only increasing,” – said Senior Researcher at the Australian Center for CSIRO CSIRO CSIRO Kangaro.”, – WRITE: www.pravda.com.ua
