With the 2015 Paris Agreement, all Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) have agreed to limit global warming to 2 °C compared to pre-industrial levels and to pursue efforts to further limit this increase further to a maximum of 1.5 °C [[UNFCCC (2015b)]].

Key policy issues

  • What global greenhouse gas emissions pathways would meet the well below 2 °C climate target?
  • What is the effect of effort-sharing approaches on regional and national emission reduction targets and on the cost of climate policies?
  • What is the effect of the NDCs on achieving the long term 2 ºC target?
  • What are the trade-offs between mitigation costs, adaptation costs, and climate change damage?
