10 years after the Paris Agreement, world leaders are letting go of its most famous goal
At COP30 in Brazil, this year's U.N. climate negotiations crashed out on a hard truth: It’s all about the money.

Last year global temperatures were 1.6°C over the pre-industrial average, the first year to breach the 1.5° goal.
"One or two years that exceed 1.5°C above the pre-industrial level does not imply that the Paris Agreement has been breached. However, with the current rate of warming at more than 0.2°C per decade, the probability of breaching the 1.5°C target of the Paris Agreement within the 2030s is highly likely."
