World Cultural Heritage sites are under climate stress and no emissions mitigation pathways can uniformly protect them by Zihua Chen, Qian Gao, Yajing Wu, Jiaxin Li, Xiaowei Li, Xiao Li, Zhenbo Wang, Haiyang Cui

“…Here we use an analytical hazard–vulnerability–exposure framework, combining global climate reanalysis and multi-model projections with site-level material inventories, to track climate stress on United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization World Heritage sites in the past (1961–1990), present (2010–2040) and future (2070–2100). We find that 80% of sites already experience harmful heat and moisture disturbance, and nearly 19% are threatened on more than one key material such as stone and wood. …”
