Historical records show that even current warming levels at 1.2\u00b0C, if sustained, will likely lead to several meters of sea-level rise over coming centuries. Earth\u2019s glaciers face an equally dire fate, with four regions \u2013 the European Alps, Rockies of the Western U.S. and Canada, Iceland, and Scandinavia \u2013 committed to losing at least half their ice at or below sustained 1\u00b0C. These same regions lose nearly all ice at 2\u00b0C.
