The avoidance of highly damaging climate change requires action to stabilise the present level of GHGs in the atmosphere as soon as possible, which would involve a reduction in GHG emissions by at least 50%, according to the IPCC. If nothing is done the following list shows some of the devastating impacts we can expect:
Ili kuepusha mabadiliko mabaya ya hali ya hewa, pana umuhimu wa kuimarisha kiwango kilichopo cha GHG katika anga mapema sana, na kwenda sambamba na upungazaji wa asilimia hamsini (50%) wa gesi chafu za GHG kwa kulingana na IPCC.
