However, emissions reductions have consistently fallen short of targets, and large-scale CDR may not be feasible. [14] [15] The 2024 UN Environment Programme (UNEP) Emissions Gap Report said that current policies would likely lead to 3.1°C global warming country’s commitments and pledges to reduce emissions would likely lead to 1.9°C warming.
11 December: applying a fusion of probabilistic projections, a study published in the American Geophysical Union's Earth's Future journal projected "very likely" (5th–95th %ile) sea level rise by the year 2100 to be 0.3–1.0 m (12–39 in) under a low-emissions scenario and 0.5–1.9 m (20–75 in) under a high-emissions scenario.
Climate Action Tracker (CAT) is an independent scientific project [2] [3] with the aim of monitoring government action to achieve their reduction of greenhouse gas emissions with regard to international agreements – specifically the globally agreed Paris Agreement aim of "holding warming well below 2°C, and pursuing efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C.".
For doing this, emissions must peak by 2025. [40] [41] Recent work––on the basis of the first single calendar year in 2024 with an average temperature above 1.5 degrees Celsius––indicates that most probably Earth has already entered the 20-year period that will reach an average warming of 1.5 degrees Celsius.

The Special Report on Emissions Scenarios (SRES) is a report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) that was published in 2000. The greenhouse gas emissions scenarios described in the Report have been used to make projections of possible future climate change .
If the world does not begin to drastically cut emissions by the time of the next report of the IPCC, then it will no longer be possible to prevent 1.5 °C of warming. [23] SSP1-1.9 is a new pathway with a rather low radiative forcing of 1.9 W/m 2 in 2100 to model how people could keep warming below the 1.5 °C threshold. But, even in this ...
[128] "The United Nation’s Environment Programme’s (UNEP) Fifth Emissions Gap report shows there is an urgent need for governments to ramp up their 2020 commitments to cut greenhouse gases if the world is to stay within the global carbon budget needed to keep climate disrupting temperature increases below 20C… "Canada needs to seize these ...
very low GHG emissions: CO 2 emissions cut to net zero around 2050 1.6 °C: 1.4 °C: 1.0 – 1.8 SSP1-2.6: low GHG emissions: CO 2 emissions cut to net zero around 2075 1.7 °C: 1.8 °C: 1.3 – 2.4 SSP2-4.5: intermediate GHG emissions: CO 2 emissions around current levels until 2050, then falling but not reaching net zero by 2100 2.0 °C: 2.7 ...
