UN just released a "survival guide for humanity", UN just released a "survival guide for humanity", which said the world is rapidly approaching catastrophic levels of heating with international climate goals set to slip out of reach unless immediate and radical action is taken. 
The synthesis report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is the culmination of almost six years of work by thousands of scientists representing the most comprehensive summary of human knowledge on our climate. The report is agreed on by all governments involved. 
It also crucially declares we will "likely" fail to reach the 1.5-degree target aimed at preventing the most catastrophic consequences of climate change. The world has already warmed by 1.1C and now experts say that it is likely to breach 1.5C in the 2030s. Current policies have us on course for 2.7C, as per @climateactiontr
