‘Much more needed’ to achieve Paris climate goals: UN report

Al Jazeera  

UN says world is not on track to meet the long-term goals of the Paris Agreement, including capping global warming at 1.5 degrees Celsius. “Yet the world is not on track to meet the long-term goals of the Paris Agreement.” According to the report, there was a “rapidly narrowing window” to implement existing commitments to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels, as highlighted in the 2015 treaty. Achieving net zero carbon emissions by mid-century, another Paris Agreement goal – will require “radical decarbonisation”, the report said, including phasing out the burning of all fossil fuels whose emissions cannot be captured. The stocktake also says that clean power must be dramatically ramped up, according to the first UN scorecard of the world’s progress in meeting Paris Agreement climate goals. G20’s burden Separately on Friday, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said leaders of the G20 nations have the power to reset a climate crisis that is “spinning out of control”.
