Question

In the 2015 Paris climate agreement, nearly 200 countries agreed to limit the global temperature rise to “well below” 2 degrees Celsius, with an aspirational goal to keep it to 1.5 degrees Celsius. Why did the poorer nations fight for the aspirational goal of 1.5-degree warming?
What will happen when the world heats beyond 1.5 degrees Celsius.
