- Report - "Navigating New Horizons, 2024" - UNEP
- @ current geological epoch, Holocene, began some 11,700 years ago
- the report insists that its intent is not to forecast but to foresee the future
- temperature rise will breach the human climate nice ie. 52F and 59F or 11.11C and 15C
- Areas that will be severely hit includes India as well
- By 2070, certain regions like North and South America, Central Africa, India, Northern Australia will become too hot for human life.
- One-third of the global population is projected to experience a mean annual temperature >29C, currently found in only 0.8% of the Earth's land surface, mostly concentrated in Sahara.
