.ON FEBRUARY 8TH the Copernicus Environment Change Company, an EU company, introduced that in the one year to January 31st the planet's temperature level had actually been actually, generally, 1.52 u00b0 C higher than pre-industrial amounts. The Paris agreement, a temperature treaty of 2015, fully commited countries to keep the increase in "global standard temperature ... properly below 2 u00b0 C above pre-industrial levels" as well as look for to restrict it to 1.5 u00b0 C. Can people point out that the globe has surpassed one of the Paris turning points? If it has not, what will be required to make such an insurance claim?
