For the first time ever, global warming has exceeded 1.5C across a yearly period.
Only nine years ago, world leaders promised to limit the long-term temperature rise to 1.5C, which is seen as the crucial level to help avoid most damaging impacts.
While this change doesn’t necessarily breach the landmark agreement made in Paris, it does bring us closer to irreversible change long-term.
Some drastic changes you might have noticed over the last twelve months include floods, droughts, heatwaves and wilderness fires all over the world.
There’s no question about it – the majority of these changes have been driven by human activities – or inactivity when it comes to making positive changes.
While our generation might never see some of the more devastating impacts of climate change, something certainly needs now to protect future generations.
One way that you can majorly impact ongoing climate issues, is by separating and recycling your businesses waste correctly.
