"The two organizations ran large weather models to see where things were headed after the last two years of record global temperatures. The findings present a stark picture over the next couple of years. For example, there's a large chance that we will break more heat records over the next five years."

"Now, rising temperatures matter for two reasons. The first is the heat itself. Heat is uncomfortable for humans, and when it's too hot, it can be fatal. It also kills crops, kills animals, and causes all kinds of other problems. Second, rising global temperatures are a sign that the planet is being altered, which means we can expect more extreme weather events."

"So far, since about the 1850s, the average global temperature has gone up about 1.2 degrees Celsius. According to these models, it could go up to 1.5, at least temporarily, at some point over the next five years. This is significant because when it comes to temperatures, tenths of a degree matter a great deal."
