The Under2 Coalition: Governments Committed To Keep Temperature Rise Under 2 Degrees
Geschreven op 6-3-2019 - Erik van Erne. Geplaatst in KlimaatThe Under2 Coalition is driven by a group of ambitious state and regional governments committed to keeping global temperature rises to well below 2°C.
The coalition is made up of more than 220 governments who represent over 1.3 billion people and 43% of the global economy.
Deep decarbonization pathway planning: supporting governments to develop robust medium and long-term (2050) emissions reduction plans in line with the goals of the Paris Climate Agreement.
Scaling innovative policy solutions: spreading today’s best climate policies and developing new policies to ensure full decarbonization.
Mainstreaming transparency: supporting governments so they have the expertise and systems in place to assess their emissions accurately, track progress and ensure policies remain fit for delivering against climate targets.
The Climate Group is the Secretariat to the Under2 Coalition and works with governments to accelerate climate action through three workstreams.
