Irreversible impacts from cryosphere loss are already visible today due to increasing global warming. Crossing additional cryosphere thresholds will have far-reaching impacts across the world. In this side event, speakers presented the latest science showing that limiting warming to 1.5°C without overshoot is critical to avoid crossing the most catastrophic thresholds. Speakers included Dr. Carl-Friedrich Schleussner, Head of Climate Science and Impacts at Climate Analytics, consortium lead for the H2020 PROVIDE project; Dr. Fabien Maussion, University of Innsbruck; and Dr. Uta Klönne, Science Advisor at Climate Analytics. Pam Pearson, Director of ICCI and a PROVIDE advisor, moderated.
