Author Correction: Change in cooling degree days with global mean temperature rise increasing from 1.5 °C to 2.0 °C | Nature Sustainability

Correction to: Nature Sustainability https://doi.org/10.1038/s41893-023-01155-z. Published online 13 July 2023.

The originally published title of this article, “Change in cooling degree days with global mean temperature increasing from 1.5 °C to 2.0 °C,” was imprecise, and the title is now amended to read “Change in cooling degree days with global mean temperature rise increasing from 1.5 °C to 2.0 °C” in the HTML and PDF versions of the article.

State of Play

What began as a theory in the 1890s — that industrial emissions of carbon dioxide could increase global temperatures — had progressed to a scientific fact a century later. Scientists across a range of disciplines are studying the impact of the still-growing concentration of carbon dioxide and other so-called “greenhouse gases” in the atmosphere as they call for industrial and governmental policies to slow, then halt, the warming of the planet.
