 Our findings suggest that a 1.5°C warming threshold would result in fewer extreme weather events, less water scarcity, and less damage to coral reefs than a 2°C warming threshold. Additionally, a 1.5°C warming threshold would reduce the length of droughts in certain areas, while a 2°C warming threshold could lead to more frequent and intense droughts.
