UN warns that global warming will exceed 1.5 degrees and calls for urgent action

Diário de Viseu2 September 2026 at 13:15

The United Nations Organization (UN) warned that global warming is expected to exceed the 1.5 degrees Celsius limit established as a target by international climate agreements. The warning reinforces the imminent risks of climate change for the planet.

The entity called for the need for urgent action by governments and the international community to combat the effects of climate change. The timing of the warning highlights the urgency for more effective responses.

The UN program that issued the warning recalled that measures to limit warming must be accompanied by adaptation policies. This means that, in addition to reducing emissions, it is necessary to prepare societies and economies for the impacts that are already inevitable.
