The Climate Clock tells us how much time we have left before it's too late.
The clock is based on the best available data from leading climate scientists around the world. Greenhouse gas emissions need to decline. If they don't, we're only years away from temperatures rising by 1.5°C and 2°C across the globe.
If we can stop this increase, we'll avoid climate change's most dangerous effects.
