Why One Point Five Degrees?

‘Our house is on fire - We know what we have to do to put it out.’ - Greta Thunberg

Our name is drawn from the climate emergency we are in.

Scientists calculate that emissions must fall by half by 2030 to give a good chance of limiting global heating to 1.5C, beyond which hundreds of millions of people will face more heatwaves, droughts, floods, poverty and a world of much greater risk.

Australia has committed to this through the Paris Agreement.

There are far-reaching and severe impacts of climate change if it goes beyond 1.5˚C. Global warming has already reached 1 degree.

Be part of the solution.
