Summary

The planet’s heating up fast—next year could be even hotter, with a 85-92% chance. El Niño may add another 0.3°C, pushing temps dangerously close to the 2°C threshold scientists warned us not to cross. Cutting emissions alone won’t reverse this trend, and even carbon removal tech can’t act fast enough. Enter solar radiation management: reflecting sunlight to cool the planet, potentially easing extreme weather. Though risky and untested, experts say we may have no choice but to develop it urgently as climate change accelerates.
