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

Diário de Leiria3 September 2026 at 19:30

The United Nations issued a warning that global warming is expected to exceed the limit of 1.5 degrees Celsius. The UN calls for urgent action to face this situation.

The United Nations program responsible for the warning emphasizes that measures to limit global warming are not sufficient on their own. These measures must be accompanied by adaptation policies.

The warning reinforces the need for countries to implement strategies that allow populations and ecosystems to deal with the impacts of climate change that are already underway. Adaptation is seen as an essential complement to mitigation efforts.

The information available in the article is limited, but it makes clear the urgency highlighted by the UN regarding the need to combine actions to reduce emissions with preparation for the inevitable effects of climate change.
