Fox News
With less than one week until world leaders plan to meet in Glasgow for the Climate Change Conference, a UN report released Tuesday revealed goals to lower greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 will not be enough.
But UN scientists have said the world will need to cut emissions by 55% to meet the Paris Climate Agreement and "limit global warming" by 1.5 degrees Celsius – a figure comparable to "pre-industrial levels."
"Less than one week before COP26 in Glasgow, we are still on track for climate catastrophe," UN Secretary-General António Guterres said during a press conference Tuesday.
