Read the original article on lbc.co.uk (opens in a new tab)LBC reports the Climate Action Tracker's warning that current policies put the world on course for 2.7C of warming by 2100 and that the 1.5C limit will be overshot, and attributes the projections to the report and its authors. It names fossil fuels as the main cause of warming and gives both the positive signs and the shortfalls the report identifies. Nothing in it misleads the reader.
“which cause most of the greenhouse gas emissions driving global warming when they are burned for transport, heating, power and industry”
LBC states in its own voice that burning fossil fuels drives global warming, with no hedge on the basic science.
“the world is on track for 2.7C of warming by 2100 – up slightly from 2.6C last year and the same as the years 2021 to 2024”
The article gives the central projection with its year on year comparison, so the reader can see the trend rather than a single alarming or reassuring number.
“suggested a slight decline in carbon emissions from fossil fuels this year, of 0.4 per cent, driven by expansion of solar and wind power and the Iran conflict”
The article reports the small fall in emissions with its source, its size and its causes, and then sets it against the much faster cuts the report says are needed.
