Insufficient COP28 Pledges Won't Limit Global Warming to 1.5C, Warns IEA
TL;DR Summary
Pledges made by countries at the UN-backed climate talks in Dubai are not enough to limit global warming to the crucial 1.5-degree threshold, according to an analysis by the International Energy Agency (IEA). The commitments would only reduce greenhouse gas emissions by one-third of what is needed to cap global warming at 1.5 degrees Celsius. The IEA called for more countries and companies to join the pledges and emphasized the need for an orderly and just decline in global fossil fuel use. Negotiations at COP28 are discussing an agreement that could call for the phase-out of fossil fuels for the first time, but there are divisions over the issue.
