"Too late now to save Arctic summer ice, climate scientists find. The world was on the brink of multiple disastrous tipping points. Ice-free summers inevitable even with sharp emissions cuts and likely to result in more extreme heatwaves and floods. The research shows that 90% of the melting is the result of human-caused global heating, with natural factors accounting for the rest. We need to reduce CO2 emissions more ambitiously and also prepare to adapt to this faster Arctic warming and its impacts on human society and ecosystems.”
