The CO2 emissions dipped due to the COVID19 pandemic, but still the world is heading for an increase in temperature by more than 3°C in this century.
We need to make the right choices to cut the emissions so as to limit the rising temperatures.
Lifestyle, aviation and shipping industry are the major sectors that can help in bridging the gap to our commitments and achieving the net zero emission pledge.
Besides, prioritizing the measures like #naturebasedsolutions, including large-scale landscape restoration and reforestation, supporting zero emission technologies and infrastructure etc. is important.
#Climateaction can be strengthened by fostering behavior change in individuals and private sector.
The UNEP Emissions Gap Report 2020 provides the insights on the GHG emissions, and also suggests the necessary low-carbon recovery measures to curb the emissions.
