These \u201cnationally determined contributions\u201d (NDCs) spell out each country\u2019s emissions reduction targets and how they intend to achieve them. The plans remain \u201cwoefully inadequate\u201d, it concluded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fourteen countries <a href=\"https:\/\/unfccc.int\/NDCREG\">have submitted<\/a> new or updated NDCs since the last UN climate talks at COP26 in Glasgow 12 months ago, in addition to the 152 that did so in the months preceding that event. Relative to the first round of NDCs, a larger share of plans included targets to cut greenhouse gas emissions and a greater number of economic sectors and greenhouse gases were included, UNEP said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, measures in these documents remove only 0.5 gigatonnes of CO2 equivalent \u2013 less than 1% \u2013 from projected global emissions in 2030, UNEP\u2019s assessment found. This progress resulted mainly from the updated plans submitted by Australia, Brazil, Indonesia and South Korea, it said. International climate scientists have stipulated that a 45% cut is needed to reach the 1.5C target, while a 30% cut would leave us with 2C average warming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If all NDC commitments made by countries that don\u2019t require extra finance or technology support are implemented, then warming can be limited to around 2.6C by 2100, UNEP said. This can be reduced to 2.4C if less developed nations\u2019 NDCs are implemented too. These are often conditional on receiving support from richer countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Current policies alone would lead to a 2.8C rise in global average temperature, which UNEP said highlights the implications of the gap between promises and action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Warming and greenhouse gas emissions projectons to 2050 (Gigatonnes of CO2 equivalent)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cd-article-image aligncenter block--article-image block--article-image--wide\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"><div class=\"block--article-image__column\"><div class=\"hide-expand block--article-image__image\"><img class=\"lazy\" data-src=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/emissions-gap-graphic.png\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/emissions-gap-graphic-768x529.png 768w, https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/emissions-gap-graphic-1024x705.png 1024w, https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/emissions-gap-graphic.png 1653w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 768px, (max-width: 1024px) 1024px, 1653px\" alt=\"emissions gap graphic\"\/><\/div><div class=\"block--article-image__content\"><div itemprop=\"caption\" class=\"block--article-image__caption\">Source: UNEP Emissions Gap Report 2022 <\/div><\/div><\/div><meta itemprop=\"contentUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/emissions-gap-graphic.png\"\/><meta itemprop=\"contentSize\" content=\"259 KB\"\/><meta itemprop=\"height\" content=\"1138\"\/><meta itemprop=\"width\" content=\"1653\"\/><meta itemprop=\"author\"\/><meta itemprop=\"representativeOfPage\" content=\"true\"\/><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Richer nations in the G20 group, which are responsible for 75% of global emissions, are not on track to achieve targets set in their new or updated NDCs, UNEP said. Most have only just begun to implement their plans, and need to put in place additional policies, it added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a best-case scenario, full implementation of both unconditional NDCs and high-level commitments to achieve a net zero economy by 2050 will keep warming within a 1.8C rise, UNEP added. It did not believe that this scenario was currently credible due to the discrepancy between current emissions, short-term NDC targets and long-term net-zero targets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-action-too-slow\">Action too slow<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A separate report published by the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), which runs the UN\u2019s climate action including the international negotiations, mirrored UNEP\u2019s conclusions. Its <a href=\"https:\/\/unfccc.int\/documents\/619180\">report<\/a> analyses the impacts of measures contained in NDCs and highlights trends in climate action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It found that the combined effects of measures in NDCs would increase emissions by 10.6% by 2030, compared to 2010. This is an improvement on last year\u2019s assessment, which estimated a rise of 13.7%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last year\u2019s conclusion was that emissions would continue to increase beyond 2030. This was no longer the case, the report said. However it cautioned that emissions are still not demonstrating the rapid downward trend science says is necessary this decade.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"wp-block-cd-related-news alignright block--related-news loading\" data-post-id=\"85914\"><div class=\"block--related-news__image\"><\/div><div class=\"block--related-news__content\"><span class=\"block--related-news__heading\">Recommended<\/span><span class=\"block--related-news__title\"><\/span><\/div><\/a>\n\n\n\n<p>Almost all of the NDCs outlined energy supply, transport, buildings, industry, agriculture, land use change and waste as areas for emissions reduction. NDCs proposing action to decarbonise industry were less common than those for other areas, despite being the second largest source of global greenhouse gas emissions with the second highest annual emissions growth rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most frequently mentioned measures to reduce emissions were renewable energy generation (88%), with the share of NDCs indicating this option sharply increasing since previous NDCs from 59 to 91%. This was followed by improving the energy efficiency of buildings (70%), and afforestation, reforestation and revegetation (54%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Around half the NDCs considered the benefits of certain measures for both adaptation and mitigation. For example, afforestation and reforestation both absorb carbon dioxide and prevent flooding and soil erosion. Other cross-cutting actions proposed in NDCs included reducing food waste, vertical farming, nature-based solutions and moving to a more circular economy to reduce waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There were also an increasing number of NDCs targeting ocean-based climate action. Around 26% of countries include an ocean-based climate target, policy or measure, though more of these relate to adaptation than to mitigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Coal phase out<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Of the countries that submitted new or updated NDCs since the climate talks in Glasgow last year, there was a rise in the number proposing measures to phase down unabated coal power generation and phase out inefficient fossil fuel subsidies, which countries agreed to do in the <a href=\"https:\/\/unfccc.int\/process-and-meetings\/the-paris-agreement\/the-glasgow-climate-pact-key-outcomes-from-cop26?gclid=CjwKCAjw2OiaBhBSEiwAh2ZSPxXk5vn4YdXM9hDhuAJGoNTM-KhIwgBmEgj8DNPVl9y9x6jF-BCH5hoCUR0QAvD_BwE\">Glasgow Climate Pact<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Proposed measures included replacing coal-fired power plants with combined-cycle gas power plants and gradually phasing out subsidies on electricity and fuels in tandem with social protection measures for low-income households.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tom Evans, policy advisor on the geopolitics, climate diplomacy and security programme at think tank E3G said it was important that some NDCs reflected the pact\u2019s commitments, but what really mattered was how the real economy shifted to drive transformations at pace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s clear that\u2019s not happening fast enough to limit warming to 1.5C. Political signals from governments are one thing, but it\u2019s another to unlock the crucial finance needed to actually accelerate the implementation of those goals. This must be a crucial area of attention from governments at COP27,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cd-pull-quote block--pull-quote block--pull-quote--no-citation\"><div class=\"block--pull-quote__wrapper\"><blockquote class=\"block--pull-quote__quote\">The increase in CO2 levels from 2020 to 2021 was larger than the average annual growth rate over the last decade<\/blockquote><cite class=\"block--pull-quote__cite\"><\/cite><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Evans pointed to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wri.org\/research\/state-climate-action-2022\">a separate report<\/a> released in the run-up to COP27, which concluded that action on the ground was far too slow. A global coal phase out needs to happen six times as fast, while public financing for fossil fuels should be phased out five times quicker than they are now, it said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The report, by organisations including the Bezos Earth Fund, Climate Action Tracker, the UN Climate Change High-Level Champions, and the World Resources Institute, also revealed that only 15 of the 119 countries that signed the COP26 Global Methane Pledge include a specific, quantified methane-reduction target in their NDCs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Senior fellow at the World Resources Institute Taryn Fransen said: \u201cTo come to grips with the climate crisis, we must seize on major opportunities that are still on the table. The European Union, Chile, Mexico, Turkey and Vietnam have all signalled they will strengthen their targets before the end of the year.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If China were to set a concrete target to cut&nbsp;methane emissions, that would have a notable impact on the global temperature trajectory, she added. The US, which took a massive step forward by passing the <a href=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/en\/climate\/inflation-reduction-act-turning-point-us-climate-policy\/\">Inflation Reduction Act<\/a>, needed action by both federal agencies and state governments to implement it, she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Greenhouse gases still rising<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Atmospheric levels of the three main greenhouse gases \u2013 carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide \u2013 all reached new record highs in 2021, according to the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). Its <a href=\"https:\/\/wmo.us7.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=e35fa2254c2a4394f75d43308&amp;id=a87af8c526&amp;e=cc32c83ff7\">Greenhouse Gas Bulletin<\/a>, published last week, stated that the increase in CO2 levels from 2020 to 2021 was larger than the average annual growth rate over the last decade.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It also reported the biggest year-on-year jump in methane concentrations in 2021 since systematic measurements began nearly 40 years ago. The reason for this exceptional increase is unclear but seems to be a result of both biological and human-induced processes, it said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"wp-block-cd-related-news alignright block--related-news loading\" data-post-id=\"88885\"><div class=\"block--related-news__image\"><\/div><div class=\"block--related-news__content\"><span class=\"block--related-news__heading\">Recommended<\/span><span class=\"block--related-news__title\"><\/span><\/div><\/a>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere is no good news from the perspective of the atmosphere,\u201d said WMO secretary general Petteri Taalas. The organisation will soon publish new findings on climate change impacts, all of which are also negative, according to Taalas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTwenty years ago, sea level rise used to be about two millimetres per year, but recently we have seen 4.5mm sea level rise,\u201d he said. A growing component of this is from glacier melt, he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inger Anderson, UNEP\u2019s executive director, said that countries had their chance to make incremental changes. \u201cThat time is over. We\u2019re sliding from climate crisis to climate disaster. Only a root-and-branch transformation of our economies and societies can save us from accelerating climate disaster.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The electricity, transport, food and industry sectors all needed immediate and transformative change, she said. Anderson also advocated reform of the financial sector, including introducing carbon pricing, shifting financial flows to low carbon technology, and more concrete regulation to make central banks act on climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI know that some people think this can\u2019t be done over the next eight years, but we can\u2019t just throw our hands up in the air and say that we failed before we even really try \u2013 every fraction of a degree matters to vulnerable communities,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Every government should build the solutions in the report into their climate commitments and back it up with real finance, while those that are donors need to put money on the table to help poorer nations, she said. Private sector companies should rework their practices, and every investor needs to put their capital towards a net zero world, she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis is how we can jam open that closing window for climate action, and this is how we can start to change our world for the better for everyone,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Planned climate action
