Hundreds of the world's leading climate scientists expect global temperatures to rise at least 2.5\u00b0C (4.5\u00b0F) above pre-industrial levels this century, exceeding internationally agreed targets and causing catastrophic consequences for humanity and the planet, an exclusive has revealed Guardian survey.<\/p>\n
Almost 80 % respondents, all from the authoritative Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), predict global warming of at least 2.5\u00b0C, with nearly half predicting at least 3\u00b0C (5.4\u00b0F). Only 6 % thought the internationally agreed limit of 1.5C (2.7F) would be met.<\/p>\n
Many scientists envision a "semi-dystopian" future with famines, conflicts and mass migration, fueled by heat waves, fires, floods and storms with an intensity and frequency far exceeding those that have already struck.
