CLIMATE GROUP RESPONDS TO LATEST IPCC REPORT


CLIMATE GROUP RESPONDS TO LATEST IPCC REPORT

4 April 2022, 9:00 UTC 2 min read

Share:






On 4 April the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released its
latest report which focuses on climate change mitigation and the need to rapidly
reduce emissions. The report pinpoints energy efficiency, renewable energy and
electrification as key solutions to help the world decrease greenhouse gases
within this decade.

Helen Clarkson, CEO of international non-profit Climate Group, said:

“It is deeply distressing that we are not in a position to achieve a safe world
for our future. Even if all current government and business commitments are met,
we will vastly overshoot the warming target laid out by the IPCC.  

“I can’t overstate the importance of governments and businesses setting
ambitious targets, delivering on them, and eventually bringing them forward. The
worrying issue right now is that many of them are only in the setting targets
stage. The science has been clear for some time: net zero is not optional. This
is the Climate Decade, and we must halve emissions in 2030 if we have any chance
of net zero by 2050. 

“This is not about waiting for another UN conference or global meeting to take a
next step. My message to every policy maker and business leader that reads a
copy of this report is simple: clear whatever is on your desk and start
reworking your climate plans. Anything else is an unquestionable failure.” 

Watch this video by Climate Group which demonstrates how significant a change in
1.5C degrees Celsius could be.  

Find out more about how we're focussing on systems with the highest emissions
and where our networks have the greatest opportunity to drive change.
