The Paris Agreement aims to limit global mean warming in the twenty-first century to less than 2 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels, and to promote further efforts to limit warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius1. The amount of greenhouse gas emissions in coming decades will be consequential for...
At the time of its adoption, the Paris Agreement was generally perceived to be ambitious with its overarching goal of limiting global warming to well below 2 °C, pursuing 1.5 °C, and achieving a balance in anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals in the second half of the century (...
The Paris Climate Agreement sets out an aggressive goal of limiting global average warming to well below 2 °C. As a first step, virtually all
In summary, Trump's withdrawal decision was mainly driven by the U.S. domestic politics and his personal preferences rather than any burdens on the U.S. imposed by the Paris Agreement. Under America's tripartite system, the President, the Congress, and the Supreme Court share the authority ...
The 2015 Paris Agreement sets the objectives of global climate ambition as expressed in its long-term temperature goal and mitigation goal. The scientific community has explored the characteristics of greenhouse gas emission reduction pathways in line wi
Summary The Paris Agreement raises the level of ambition. It: • Sets the goal of holding the increase in global temperature to 'well below' 2°C, with effort towards achieving 1.5ºC; • Stresses the need to increase countries' ability to adapt to the adverse impacts of climate ...

(2018) compile each country’s unconditional GHG emissions reduction target in the Paris Agreement, using summary information contained in the Supplementary Information of a study by Rogelj et al. (2016). The original study uses only the headline percentage reduction to measure stringency, so a ...
Our study shows that the gap between a continuation of current emission trends and a Paris-aligned 1.5 °C target can be reduced by about 90% by 2100. This provides a pathway to bring the Paris Agreement climate goals within reach.
