WE CAN STILL STOP 1.5°C WARMING, SAYS IPCC. BUT WE NEED CLIMATE ACTION NOW.

SUSTAINABLE WORLD.”

Global greenhouse gas emissions have to peak by 2025 and then fall by 43% by
2030 in order to keep global temperatures from rising more than 1.5 degrees
Celsius above pre-industrial levels, according to the latest report from the
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which published on Monday.
While such a scenario is technically possible, it will require transformative
political action and solidarity around the world. In fact, the authors of the
report note that the money, science, and technology is available now to achieve
such a transition, but that status quo politics and special interest groups are
the only things standing in the way.

Europe: Swap Russian Gas for Renewables

WHAT TO KNOW
To save the planet we need to end our reliance on fossil fuels like oil and gas.
The EU just pledged to stop importing gas from Russia, but now they’re looking
at replacing it with more dirty energy.
EU leaders are meeting this month to discuss energy policy - send an urgent
tweet for them to put renewables first.
“We are at a crossroads. The decisions we make now can secure a liveable future.
We have the tools and know-how required to limit warming,” said Hoesung Lee, the
IPCC chair, in a press release. “I am encouraged by climate action being taken
in many countries.
“There are policies, regulations and market instruments that are proving
effective,” he said. “If these are scaled up and applied more widely and
equitably, they can support deep emissions reductions and stimulate innovation.”
The AR6 Climate Change 2022: Mitigation of Climate Change report reviews the
various sources of greenhouse gas emissions and analyzes ways that countries can
mitigate or reduce them. Major sectors covered include energy use, cities,
transportation, industry, agriculture, forestry, land use, and food systems.
The report seesaws between promising signs of progress and disappointing,
business-as-usual trends.
For example, the rate of emissions growth has slowed in recent years, from 2.1%
per year in the 2000s to 1.3% per year in the 2010s, but emissions are currently
at their highest aggregate rate ever. In fact, if the amount of emissions
released over the past decade is emulated over the next decade, the entire
remaining carbon budget for 1.5 degrees Celsius of warming will be used up.
Although 24 countries have reduced their emissions every year for at least a
decade, these reductions have been more than offset by emissions growth
elsewhere, especially in the Asia-Pacific region. Even as emissions dropped by
45% during the COVID-19 pandemic, countries failed to capitalize on these
trends, even supporting fossil fuel use in recovery packages, which caused
emissions to rebound.

The technologies needed to decarbonize both the transportation and industrial
sectors are ready for mass deployment, but an ongoing lack of investment has
hampered the transition, and even led to sector-wide emissions increases.
“The report shows that reducing emissions at the speed and scale required to
limit warming to 2 degrees [Celsius] or below implies deep economic changes that
could increase inequality between and within countries,” Celine Guivarch, a lead
author of the report focusing on energy transitions, said in a statement.
“But policies can be designed to avoid increasing or even decrease economic
inequality and poverty,” she added. “This entails broadening access to clean
technologies and international finance. In applying just transition principles
to integrate considerations of equity and justice into policies at all scales
and enable accelerated mitigation action.”
While overall forest cover has increased over the past decade, rates of
deforestation are accelerating in many parts of the world, including in the
Amazon rainforest.
Markets for accurately pricing carbon dioxide emissions have grown, but the vast
majority of overall emissions remain priced far below their actual costs, and
are even subsidized by governments.
And while the Paris climate agreement has received more traction and support in
recent years, governmental commitments under the framework remain inadequate to
prevent 1.5 degrees Celsius of temperature rise.

INVESTING IN RENEWABLE ENERGY CREATES MORE JOBS THAN SPENDING ON FOSSIL FUELS:
REPORT
The report identifies dozens of areas for minimizing emissions in the years
ahead.
First and foremost, subsidies and government investments in fossil fuels need to
come to an end immediately, and existing oil, gas, and coal infrastructure needs
to be dismantled and converted as soon as possible.
The most significant and cost-effective emissions reductions can be achieved by
investing in solar and wind energy, which have become far cheaper and more
accessible over the past decade. The cost of batteries for renewable energy
storage have also plummeted.
Nature-based solutions offer a lot of potential, according to the report,
especially regenerative agriculture, reforestation, fire management, and
conservation.
“Agriculture, forestry, and other land use contribute 22% of global emissions,”
Mercedes Bustamante, a lead author of the report focusing on forest
conservation, nature-based solutions, and options for developing countries, said
in a statement. “This sector can not only provide large-scale reductions of
emissions but can also remove and store CO2 at scale.”
She added: “Well-designed land-based mitigation options to remove carbon can
also benefit biodiversity and ecosystems, help us adapt to climate change,
secure livelihoods, improve food and water security. Options include protecting
and restoring natural ecosystems such as forests, peatlands, wetlands, savannas,
and grasslands.”
A worldwide shift toward plant-based diets would significantly reduce emissions
and protect biodiversity, while investing in public transportation and energy
efficiency within vehicles are some of the cheapest options right now.

HOW DO YOU KEEP HOPE AMID THE CLIMATE CRISIS?
Narratives around the climate crisis often have a fatalist streak, suggesting
that doomsday scenarios of environmental apocalypse are all-but-inevitable. But
the latest IPCC report shows that the future is within our collective control,
and that a just transition away from fossil fuels and toward environmental
sustainability can be achieved.
“Climate change is the result of more than a century of unsustainable energy and
land use, lifestyles and patterns of consumption and production,” said Jim Skea,
IPCC Working Group III co-chair, in a press release. “This report shows how
taking action now can move us toward a fairer, more sustainable world.”
