The commitments made at COP21 in 2015 – to limit global warming to well below 2, preferably to 1.5 degrees Celsius – were monumental at the time, but increasingly stark reports from the likes of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change on the unprecedented impacts of climate change have made it clear that the commitments seen in the Paris and Glasgow agreements will not go nearly far enough. Collectively, we need to do more, much more.
