Policy Brief: The Risks of Temperature Overshoot

Policy Brief: The Risks of Temperature Overshoot

We need to peak emissions before 2025 on the way to roughly halving GHG emissions by 2030 to minimise the risk of overshooting the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C limit. However, current policies and pledged Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) are inadequate achieve any of these milestone. Urgent and stringent action is needed.

D1.1 Policy brief on assessment of GHG emissions implied by the latest round of NDCs under the Paris Agreement, their plausible temperature implications, and CDR deployment scales in associated pathways

D1.1 Policy brief on assessment of GHG emissions implied by the latest round of NDCs under the Paris Agreement, their plausible temperature implications, and CDR deployment scales in associated pathways

A method to analyze the global warming implications of Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and other long-term emissions reduction targets is described. In addition, a method to understand the potential Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) consequences of the implied emissions pathways is presented.
