Framework Convention on Climate Change's goal has been to make sure the Earth doesn't get warmer than 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels.1 That sounds like a small number, but because it's a global average, it contains all sorts of fluctuations — for the whole planet to get warmer by that amount means that some places are getting much hotter.
