If anybody tells you that „1.5C is within reach“ or „alive“ or similar, please don’t laugh at them but show them this graph.

#ProductionGap leads to #EmissionsGap
"To get on track for the internationally agreed target of 1.5C, 22bn tonnes of CO2 must be cut from the currently projected total in 2030, the report said. That is 42% of global #emissions and equivalent to the output of the world’s five worst polluters: China, US, India, Russia and Japan."

The UNEP Production Gap report on Australia’s🇦🇺 disconnect on #climate targets and #fossilfuel expansion

The "#ProductionGap" sounds like it's an inevitable thing that we can only measure helplessly, but the truth is that it is related to the "#SubsidyGap":
The world spends about $500 bn a year subsidizing the profits of #FossilFuel companies. This is five times what the global climate fund is looking for: only $100 bn a year. The rest could be redirected to clean energy, public transit, climate justice, all that.
It's a CHOICE we make.

The importance of government policy:
"Whereas the International Energy Agency projected that we’d hit peak fossil-fuel use in 2030, the U.S. Energy Information Administration came to a very different conclusion: It saw demand for fossil fuels rising through at least 2050. The difference between the two agency’s models is how they treat #GovernmentPolicy."

Taken together, government plans and projections would lead to an increase in global coal production until 2030, and in global oil and gas production until at least 2050. This conflicts with government commitments under the Paris Agreement, and clashes with expectations that global demand for coal, oil, and gas will peak within this decade even without new policies.

"The report analysed the 20 major fossil fuel producers and found they plan to produce, in total, around 110% more #FossilFuels in 2030 than would be consistent with limiting the degree of warming to 1.5C, and 69% more than is consistent with 2C."

"The world’s biggest producers of #FossilFuels aren’t letting go of dirty energy just yet. In fact, most of them plan to keep producing coal, oil, and natural gas for decades to come, despite signs that demand for dirty energy will peak this decade."

The world’s #FossilFuel🛢️producers are planning expansions that would blow the planet’s #carbon budget twice over, a UN 🇺🇳 #ProductionGap report has found. Experts called the plans “insanity” which “throw humanity’s future into question” https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/nov/08/insanity-petrostates-planning-huge-expansion-of-fossil-fuels-says-un-report

New #ProductionGap report from UNEP and partners shows that the world’s planned fossil fuel production is dangerously out of sync with 1.5°C limits.
Governments must stop saying one thing & doing another.
#COP28 must be the turning point for a fossil-free future.
