Global temperatures are likely to exceed a 1.5 degrees Celsius ( 2.7 degrees Fahrenheit ) increase over pre-industrial temperatures.

The 2.7-degree Fahrenheit threshold was set by the Paris Agreement as the upper limit to avoid catastrophic weather events like heat waves and flooding.

Scientists attribute it to a combination of natural climate patterns, like El Niño , and the relentless buildup of air pollution, particularly carbon dioxide.
