Will the climate heat up more than 2.5°C before 2050?

Prediction market on manifold. Resolves positive if the long-run [20 year] global mean temperature average raises more than 2.5°C vs. the 1850-1900 average before 2050 Resolves negative otherwise https://web.archive.org/web/20220518083042/https://library.wmo.int/doc_num.php?explnum_id=11178 If the temperature reaches the threshold, then falls back below that level the contract still resolves positive. The temperature must heat more than the threshold in the title for the contract to resolve positive, to whatever precision measured. So, if a reputable source gives the midpoint temperature increase as 2.51°C, the contrast will resolve positive, but not if the source lists 2.50°C. If the source uses a confidence interval, the contract will resolve based on the reported midpoint. see also: Will the climate heat up more than 2°C by 2050? https://manifold.markets/B/will-the-climate-heat-up-more-than-4a9f7174817a Will the climate heat up by more than 2.5°C by 2050?
