The planet will be flooded coastal cities and disappear half of species that inhabit the Earth, droughts will last longer, there will be new and powerful hurricanes.
We all need to take steps to reduce carbon emissions, and not allow the average temperature to rise more than one degree Celsius. We left you a maximum of ten years, during which we had to deal with changes in climate.

Global warming - it's a bomb with delayed action. And the bomb timer long on.
