Though a 1 C rise in global temperature may not tell us anything about global climate - temperature is not really something which effect humans or life, whereas patterns rainfall, would be more relevant than average global temperature.

In order to achieve the target set by the Paris Agreement --- to limit the rise in global average temperature to below the 2 degree C threshold — all new construction must be designed to high energy efficiency standards and use no CO2 - emitting fossil fuel energy to operate; by 2050 the entire built environment must be carbon neutral.

Last month's jump in global temperatures represents an increase of 1.35 C above the average temperature level for the period 1951 - 80 and 1.63 C above pre-industrial levels, taking global temperature for the month above the 1.5 C rise that last year's Paris climate was supposed to prevent.

Projected global average temperature rise above pre-industrial levels under a range of future scenarios, «business as usual» (BAU), which assumes no mitigation efforts are made (RCP8.5); «mitigation», which assumes moderate emissions (RCP4.5) without negative emissions, «carbon dioxide removal» (CDR), which assumes moderate emissions with long - term CO2 removal; and «solar radiation management» (SRM), which is the same as the CDR pathway but also includes enough SRM to limit temperatures to 1.5 C by 2100.
