“That’s even if the world manages to limit global average warming by two degrees or less, as intended under the Paris Climate Agreement.

“The peer-reviewed research used the latest climate data and modelling techniques including the same ones relied on by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.”

There’s that magic word:
