Original Note:
Jim Skea, chair of the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), has stated it's not helpful to imply that a temperature rise of 1.5 degrees Celsius is an existential threat to humanity. Quote: "The world won't end if it warms by more than 1.5 degrees" https://www.dw.com/en/climate-change-do-not-overstate-15-degrees-threat/a-66386523 https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/07/31/climate-doommongers-do-more-harm-than-good-says-un-chief/ https://torontosun.com/opinion/editorials/editorial-un-climate-chief-cautions-against-hysteria https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2023/08/01/nobody-panic-new-u-n-climate-chief-tells-alarmists-not-to-overstate-1-5-degrees-c-threat/ https://europeanconservative.com/articles/news/new-climate-chief-climate-alarmists-make-matters-worse/
