Greenhouse gas emissions have reached a 'grand peak' - and are causing unprecedented rates of global warming, the study warned. Scientists have calculated that 54 billion tons of carbon dioxide have been emitted annually over the past decade. Human-caused global warming has continued to increase at an "unprecedented pace" since the last major assessment of the climate system, published two years ago, according to 50 leading scientists. Failure to cut emissions means the Earth has a 50 percent chance of exceeding the 2.7°F (1.5°C) global warming limit set by the 2015 Paris Agreement within less than five years. In the journal Earth System Science Data, scientists have revealed how key indicators have changed since the publication of the IPCC Sixth Working Group 1 report in 2021.
