Emerging climate impact on carbon sinks in a consolidated carbon budget
Briefly

"Despite the adoption of the Paris Agreement ten years ago, fossil CO2 emissions continue to rise, pushing atmospheric CO2 levels to 423 ppm in 2024 and driving human-induced warming to 1.36C, within years of breaching the 1.5C limit 1,2. Accurate reporting of anthropogenic and natural CO2 sources and sinks is a prerequisite to tracking the effectiveness of climate policy and detecting carbon sink responses to climate change."

Carbon cycle Climate-change impacts Despite the adoption of the Paris Agreement ten years ago, fossil CO2 emissions continue to rise, pushing atmospheric CO2 levels to 423 ppm in 2024 and driving human-induced warming to 1.36C,"
Despite the Paris Agreement being adopted ten years ago, fossil CO2 emissions continue to increase and atmospheric CO2 reached 423 ppm in 2024. Human-induced warming has reached 1.36°C and is within years of breaching the 1.5°C threshold. Accurate reporting of anthropogenic and natural CO2 sources and sinks is essential for tracking climate-policy effectiveness and for detecting carbon sink responses to climate change. Notable mismatches between reported emissions and sinks have so far prevented confident interpretation of trends and drivers. Legal and editorial disclaimers note the manuscript is an unedited early-access version and may contain errors.
