Carbon capture and sequestration have often been considered technologies of last resort. As emissions keep rising and global carbon budgets decline, it is becoming increasingly apparent that if we are to stave off the worst of climate change we must deploy and scale these desperate remedies as quickly as possible.

Scientists are documenting changes that are “much more widespread” and “much more negative,” she said, than anticipated for the 1.09 degrees Celsius of global warming that has occurred to date. In the broadest sense, overshoot is a future where the world does not cut carbon quickly enough to limit global warming to 1.5

In the early 2010s, climate scientists were painting a grim picture of the future: If humans didn’t curb carbon dioxide emissions, the world was headed toward 4 degrees Celsius (7.2 degrees Fahrenheit) of warming by the end of the century. The prime minister of Barbados, for instance, called 2 degrees of warming a “death sentence.”.

In all likelihood it will get worse as we experience more extreme weather events and sea levels rise from melting ice sheets. Fortunately, with current solar, battery and heat pump technology every building with a sunny roof under two stories can be a net generator of energy — essentially carbon negative.

Taking immediate action to slash emissions towards net zero by 2050 could make a monumental difference to the level, frequency, and breadth of growing climate impacts, the scientists emphasise. Without deep carbon pollution cuts now, the 1.5-degree We need immediate action on energy. degree goal will fall quickly out of reach.
