On October 8, 2018, the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released the Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5 °C, of which one of the findings was that we may have less than 12 years to avoid a temperature rise of over 1.5 °C. Hoegh-Guldberg was one of many Australian authors of the report, and was a Coordinating Lead Author on Chapter 3: Impacts of 1.5 °C of Global Warming on Natural and Human Systems. In an interview with UQ News, he said “A key finding of the report is that 1.5°C is not a safe level of global warming; however it is much safer than 2.0 °C”, and that “We are still going to see many challenges at 1.5°C”. The IPCC report has been used as justification for climate action movements, including by Greta Thunberg.
