Climate change is progressing at unprecedented pace, thereby posing major scientific, economic, and societal
challenges. In summer 2021, the latest report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was
released. Consensus among based on the scientific evidence assessed therein that human activities and the
associated greenhouse gas emissions are the ultimate cause of the ongoing global warming. In addition, the
report signals that global temperature is likely cross the 1.5℃ threshold in the next few decades. The scientific
community is therefore faced with a pressing demand for deciphering the impacts of a global temperature rise
by 1.5℃ (or more) above pre-industrial levels.
