Hi Hanna, as always a great piece. However, the text in the Paris agreement is often misquoted and I feel like this could be a nice addition to the article as well.

The official agreement is

"Holding the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2°C and pursuing efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5°C".

So even when the 1.5 mark is passed, the agreement still holds, in my interpretation at least.

Great article, thank you!

It is so good to have a voice of reason in an ever growing crowd of self-interested alarmists, and college-dropouts masquerading as "experts".
