The Global Cooling Pledge sets out a series of commitments by governments to accelerate emission reductions from energy use and refrigerants
Taking key measures to reduce the power consumption of cooling equipment would cut at least 60 per cent of predicted greenhouse gas emissions from the cooling sector, according to a new report published during the COP28 climate talks in Dubai.
Dubai, 5 December 2023 – Taking key measures to reduce the power consumption of cooling equipment would cut at least 60 per cent off predicted 2050 sectoral emissions, provide universal access to life-saving cooling, take the pressure off energy grids and save trillions of dollars by 2050, according to a new report published during the COP28 climate talks in Dubai.
What we are looking for at these climate talks are ways to slash greenhouse gas emissions in line with the 1.5°C and 2°C pathways of the Paris Agreement.
Cooling sector greenhouse gas emissions predicted to more than double by 2050.
