The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released a new report predicting that if current trends continue, extreme weather events will increase in frequency and intensity globally, and sea levels will rise 3-7 meters by 2300. Limiting the temperature increase to 1.5°C is also vitally important from the perspective of ocean impacts. The latest scientific knowledge reveals that bold action is needed to substantially curtail emissions within the next 10 years.
