New studies show net zero isnโ€™t enough. Stabilizing long-term climate risks may require centuries of net-negative COโ‚‚ emissions. Even at 1.5ยฐC, impacts like sea-level rise can keep worsening. Bottom line: net zero is a milestone, not the endpoint: iiasa.ac.at/news/mar-2026/ceโ€ฆ @NatureComms @IOPenvironment
