Christophe Cassou
Christophe Cassou is a renowned researcher at the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS) and an author for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). His work primarily involves climate modeling and forecasting the impacts of climate change. He recently garnered attention for his insights on the likelihood of exceeding the 1.5 °C warming threshold by the early 2030s, particularly in light of the current concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
