The UN's climate chief, Simon Stiell, has declared a two-year deadline to significantly reduce global greenhouse gas emissions.
Stiell's announcement reflects growing concerns over record-breaking temperatures and natural disasters linked to climate change.
Critics argue that Stiell's two-year timeframe is hyperbolic and may undermine effective climate policy.
