Whoever designs the covers of these UNEP reports deserves a raise. They’re fantastic.
New national climate plans have barely moved the needle on limiting global warming. Yet there is hope.
According to UNEP's latest #EmissionsGap Report, accelerated adoption of renewable energy and falling costs mean we have the tools to cut emissions now: www.unep.org/news-and-sto...

Das UN-Umweltprogramm plant nicht mehr das Einhalten von 1,5°C (Pariser Übereinkommen). Es plant den Rückweg auf 1,5°C. Das zeigt der neue Overshoot-Report.
130 Mrd. Tonnen CO2 bleiben noch. 3 Jahre Zeit, bis 1,5 Grad rechnerisch unmöglich ist.
Das Ziel ist nicht weg. Es gilt "nur" andersherum.

In 2022, the 'current policies' projection of warming was 2.6C. In 2024, it's 2.9C.
This is what I mean when I urge caution and over-excitement about stuff like huge solar capacity growth. *This* is the number that matters - and it's getting ****worse****

It's worse still in the private sector with $4.9 trillion of "nature-negative finance flows".
