With current pledges, the world's on track for 2.6°C of warming in 2100 compared to preindustrial levels.

10 years ago, before the Paris agreement, it was 3.6°C.

20+ years ago, we thought it would be 4-5°C.

1.5°C was a good target, but did anyone seriously think it was possible?

So 2.6°C is better, but the problem is that climate impacts are way worse than we predicted.
