It is still technically possible to meet the 1.5°C goal set out in the Paris agreement, but only with a G20-led massive global mobilization to cut all greenhouse gas emissions, starting today.
Nations must collectively commit to cutting 42% off annual greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and 57% by 2035 in the next round of Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) - and back this up with rapid action.
Failure to increase ambition in these new NDCs and start delivering immediately would put the world on course for a temperature increase of 2.6-3.1°C over this century, potentially bringing debilitating impacts to people, planet, and economies.
New UNEP emissions gap report highlights a 'massive gap between rhetoric and reality' and calls for a 'quantum leap' in ambition to deliver Paris goals, as the world is way off-track today.
