Accra on track in keeping global heating to 1.5°C - C40 cities report Fifty-four cities, including Accra, representing more than 200 million residents, are on track to help keep global heating below 1.5°C and tackle the climate crisis, per a new C40 analysis. C40 research revealed that city efforts could avert at least 1.9 gigatonnes of GHG emissions between 2020 and 2030, equivalent to half the annual emissions of the European Union. The report released today contains new analysis of climate action plans from these cities confirming they will deliver their fair share of greenhouse gas emission reductions to keep global temperatures to the 1.5°C target of the Paris Agreement, the level that scientists agree is needed to tackle the global climate crisis.
