"The world is striving to reach net-zero emissions as we try to ward off dangerous global warming. But will getting to net-zero actually avert climate instability, as many assume?
Our new study examined that question. Alarmingly, we found reaching net-zero in the next few decades will not bring an immediate end to the global heating problem. Earth’s climate will change for many centuries to come.
And this continuing climate change will not be evenly spread. Australia would keep warming more than almost any other land area. For example if net-zero emissions are reached by 2060, the Australian city of Melbourne is still predicted to warm by 1°C after that point.
But that’s not to say the world shouldn’t push to reach net-zero emissions as quickly as possible. The sooner we get there, the less damaging change the planet will experience in the long run."
Earth’s climate will keep changing long after humanity hits net-zero emissions. Our research shows why
Alarmingly, Earth’s climate will change for many centuries to come. But we must still push to reach net-zero emissions as quickly as possible.

Where have you been? Mars?
We have known for years that so callwd Net Zero by 2050 is a worthless distracting farce!For proof just look at global flood disasters news of the past month.
Stories like yours are falsely offering hopium that 2050 is the right date by when zero is reached.
Only fossil fuel & BAU nuts believe that!
