YouTube Description
as posted by the channelGlobal temperatures are rising higher and higher above the long-term average. April was the eleventh consecutive month to become the hottest ever recorded – that's according to the EU's climate monitoring service. To experts, it's just another sign of the progressing climate breakdown. This, of course, has many people asking – how much hotter will it get? Well – a new survey by the British newspaper The Guardian has revealed a lot of pessimism among climate researchers.
380 of them, all from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, were asked how far they anticipate global average temperatures to rise above pre-industrial levels by the year 2100. Three-quarters of them expect a rise of 2 point 5 degrees or more. That's a full degree above the internationally set target of 1.5 degrees celsius! In fact, only six percent of those polled believe that goal can still be met.
And for more on this, we talk to one of the scientists who participated in the survey. Lisa Schipper is a Professor for Development Geography at the University of Bonn.
