UNEP = The United Nations Environment Program states that if each country can achieve all of its current greenhouse gas reduction targets for 2030 and "carbon neutral" with virtually zero emissions, the world average temperature at the end of this century The increase in the number of people is expected to be suppressed to 2.1 degrees with a probability of more than 60% compared to before the Industrial Revolution.
On the other hand, he also pointed out that the amount of reduction in 2030 is not consistent with the realization of carbon neutrality in many countries, and it is necessary to raise the reduction target further.
This was announced by UNEP at an event held at "COP26", the United Nations Conference on Climate Change Countermeasures held in the United Kingdom.
According to this, if each country can achieve all of its current greenhouse gas reduction targets for 2030 and "carbon neutral" with virtually zero emissions, the world average temperature will rise at the end of this century. Compared to before the Industrial Revolution, there is a 66% chance that it will be suppressed to 2.1 degrees, and a 50% chance that it will be suppressed to 1.9 degrees.
On the other hand, he also pointed out that the amount of reduction in 2030 is not consistent with the realization of carbon neutrality in many countries that have carbon neutrality, and just achieving the current reduction target for 2030 is now. The average global temperature at the end of the century will rise by 2.7 degrees Celsius, and it is necessary to raise the target further.
Dr. Anne Olhoff of the Technical University of Denmark, who made the report, said, "What we need now is to take action to halve emissions toward 2030," and appealed for further emission reductions.
