2021 is a “make or break” year to confront the global climate emergency according to United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres.
“2021 is a make or break year to confront the global climate emergency. The science is clear, to limit global temperature rise to 1.5C, we must cut global emission by 45% by 2030 from 2010 levels,” said Guterres commenting on an interim report from the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) released earlier this week.
The UNFCC released its Initial NDC (Nationally Determined Contributions) Synthesis Report which measures the progress of national climate action plans ahead of the 26th session of Conference of its Parties (COP26) this November in Glasgow.
