Ten years after the Paris Agreement, it is clear that the Earth is still warming. Heatwaves are warmer and occur more frequently, and the number of warm days is increasing worldwide. Thanks to the Paris Agreement, we are no longer heading towards 4 °C warming, but towards 2.6 °C, if we adhere to the agreements made. As a result, future heatwaves will not be 3 to 6 °C warmer, but only 1.5 to 3 °C warmer. However, the world is still not on track to limit warming to 1.5 °C.
