Overshoot: Exploring the Implications of Meeting 1.5°C Climate Goal 'from Above'
The first-ever international conference on the topic of "overshoot" was held in Laxenburg, Austria, bringing together nearly 200 researchers and legal experts.
The three-day conference discussed future temperature pathways where the Paris Agreement's target to limit global warming to 1.5°C is met "from above, rather than below".
- Overshoot pathways exceed the 1.5°C limit before being brought back down through carbon removal techniques.
- Researchers explored the feasibility of overshoot pathways and the legal frameworks to deliver them.
- The conference also discussed the potential consequences of a rise and fall of global temperatures on climate action, society, and the Earth's climate systems.
