Question 1 of 1
1. Question
Below you can see three different predicted scenarios taken from the UN IPCC Socio-economic pathway and other reports.
Look at the descriptions for 1.5, 2.8 and 4.1 degrees of warming. Match the predicted impact for to the correct pathway.
Sort elements
- A warmer world with more flooding & heatwaves; but many humans and species should be able to adapt and survive, or even continue to thrive.
- A significantly warmer world where millions humans will have to migrate (or face death from hunger and water scarcity); thousands of species will die back or become extinct as they lose their range; conflicts between countries over resources is very likely. There will be much more flooding and extreme heat events, and there is a danger of reaching climate tipping points.
- A climate like it was before humans were invented ! Some of the carbon sinks (like the oceans, the tundra, forests which slow and prevent extreme warming) will have reached tipping points where they are release greenhouse gases and now contribute to global warming. Mass migration over billions of people and animals is predicted, along with increasing conflicts over dwindling resources. This is a much hotter world which the UN Secretary General has called ‘climate hell’.
