Calculate, reduce…compensate
Currently, emissions continue to rise, causing the Earth to now warm by more than 1,1ºC compared to the end of the XNUMXth century.
Science has shown that to preserve a habitable planet, we urgently need to limit the temperature above pre-industrial levels to no more than 1,5ºC.
As noted in the Paris Agreement, We need to reduce emissions by more than 45% by 2030 and reach net zero by 2050 in order to maintain global warming below 1,5ºC.
