2°C, currently listed for 2041, but now more likely to be 2048.

I now think it's unlikely we'll reach 3°C, due to rapid emission cuts + carbon sequestration, so I'll be removing that one listed for 2056.

But there remains a strong possibility of breaching 2.5°C, and even that could be disastrous for the world.
Interesting coincidence that I posted a climate change related video on YouTube and then shared it here at almost the same time this prediction was being updated.

This is currently listed at 2030.

Will need moving to 2033 (and with a mention of its reusability).

^ I think we'll have fixed most environmental/conservation problems by 2200.
