THE THEME OF THE DAY

Time is running out for the global climate

Floods, droughts, thawing ice in the Arctic: The earth is warming up faster than previously thought - with drastic consequences. This emerges from the most important climate science report of the year, presented by 91 researchers from the UN IPCC in Incheon, South Korea.

Limiting global warming to one and a half degrees, as stipulated by the Paris Agreement on Climate Change, is currently difficult to achieve, the researchers write. They therefore demand a drastic course of C02 emissions. My colleague Christoph Seidler has summarized and classified the results.

The effects of a changed climate could also directly affect millions of people in Germany - for example due to the rising sea level: this emerges from an unpublished bundestag paper that is available to SPIEGEL. According to this, about 3.2 million people in coastal areas are threatened by flooding.

In our newsletter, we usually put only one focus. Today we would like to draw your attention to another topic. A year ago, harassment allegations against US film producer Harvey Weinstein became known. After that, the #Metoo movement developed worldwide. But where do we stand next year for equal rights and sexual self-determination? My colleagues wrote down eleven demands, which must change urgently.

THE QUOTE OF THE DAY
