U.N. climate scientists declared that this year has been the hottest on record, and the Earth is now heading toward a "hellish" 3-degree increase if action is not taken. Previously, many countries agreed to remain below 1.5 degrees of warming above pre-industrial levels — half of what scientists are seeing today.
