Nearly 200 scientists at Exeter's Global Tipping Points Conference issued urgent warnings that multiple Earth systems risk irreversible shifts as global temperatures approach 1.5°C. The statement calls for immediate deployment acceleration, with emissions requiring 12% annual reductions starting 2025. Key systems including AMOC, Amazon rainforest, and coral reefs face imminent threshold crossing without unprecedented policy action.
