URGENT and UNPRECEDENTED CHANGES are NEEDED
According to the October 2018 report published by the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, we need to act immediately to prevent catastrophic impacts of global warming resulting from an increase of more than 1.5º C over
pre-industrial levels.
In fact the Secretary General stated that "If we do not change course by 2020, we risk missing the point where we can avoid runaway climate change, with disastrous consequences for people and all the natural systems that sustain us".
