‘A shift no country can ignore’: where global emissions stand, 10 years after the Paris climate agreement

‘A shift no country can ignore’: where global emissions stand, 10 years after the Paris climate agreement

The watershed summit in 2015 was far from perfect, but its impact so far has been significant and measurable

#Renewable #energy smashed records last year, growing by 15% and accounting for more than 90% of all new power generation capacity. Investment in #CleanEnergy topped $2tn, outstripping that into #FossilFuels by two to one.

Electric vehicles now account for about a fifth of new #cars sold around the world. Low-#carbon power makes up more than half of the generation capacity of #China and #India, with China’s emissions now flattening, and most developed countries on a downward trend.

For Laurence Tubiana, a former French diplomat who was one of the main architects of the #Paris accord and is now chief executive of the European #Climate Foundation, this is a remarkable achievement. “The #ParisAgreement has set in motion a shift towards clean energy that no country can now ignore,” she said.

And yet, global fossil fuel consumption and CO2 emissions continue to rise. Growth in CO2 concentration is accelerating not slowing. We're still following a Business As Usual 1.0 track.

Roughly 13GtC/Yr turned into 40GtCO2/yr and 60GTCO2e until the 1TtC of accessible fossil carbon is all gone.
