Some summers so hot that stepping outside could be lethal. High risk of food shortages. Deadly heatwaves every summer, hundreds of drowned cities, devastation of the majority of eco-systems, more tipping points are crossed, leading to intensified warming. High risk of reversing of carbon cycle triggering runaway warming spiral. Droughts and famine for billions of people, leading to chaos and wars. More extreme heatwaves, more floods, more doughts. Increased intensity and frequency of extreme weather events. Likely tropical crop yield decline and food supply instabilities. 5% chance of staying below 2.1°C ↑ 5% chance of reaching +4.9°C most likely scenario +3.2°C 2019 20th century average most likely scenario +3.2°C
