Climate Tipping Points Crossed
Scientists warn that global warming is reaching dangerous new levels faster than anticipated, leading to an almost irreversible decline in the world's coral reefs.
This has been described as the first "tipping point" in the collapse of ecosystems driven by climate change, according to the Global Tipping Points report, authored by 160 researchers worldwide.
The alarm comes just weeks before the COP30 climate summit, set to take place near the Amazon rainforest in Brazil.

- The report warns, lowering previous estimates of the critical temperature threshold for the region.
