The 12 months before July 2024 were more than 1.5 °C warmer than the pre-industrial baseline. Using climate models, the author shows that the first year that exceeds 1.5 °C of warming most probably also occurs within the first 20-year period with an average temperature that exceeds temperature targets.
for most people in the western world they haven’t really experienced any decline in QoL due to global warming.
I understand the spirit of your point, but I don’t think it is true. If there is one thing that defines the western world at this point I think it might be refusal to acknowledge a clearly plummeting QoL.
We have all already experienced major quality of life reductions from climate change, more are coming.

I have not experienced any QoL reductions due to global warming. Not any that affects me in a noticeable negative way anyways.
Which reductions in QoL are you thinking of?
