Already back in 2012 the World Bank had commissioned from us a report entitled "Turn Down the Heat. Why a 4°C warmer world must be avoided". At the time, it ended up being the most downloaded World Bank report ever, and was supported from the top. Two more regional reports followed.

Little side fact: they had wanted a report on how to adapt to a 4°C warmer world. We wrote why it has to be avoided.

And here we still are, 12 years later ...
