Roelfsema, M., van Soest, H.L., Harmsen, M. et al. Taking stock of national climate policies to evaluate implementation of the Paris Agreement. Nat Commun

Objective:

• Provide insights into the impact of national policies in comparison to emission pathways consistent with the Nationally Determined Contributions and overall goals of the Paris Agreement

Case:

• G20 countries

Methodology:

• 20 IAMs

  Data Source

Findings:

• Under no new policies scenario, the models project an increase in global GHG to 63.9 GtCO2eq by 2030, driven by transport, industry and power production

• It covers 15.4% of the emission gaps between no new policies and 2.C pathways by 2030

• 45% of the emission reductions are projected to come from OECD countries
