Realizing the Promise of Paris: Roadmap to a Safer Climate

The policy brief identifies 24 key actions to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, noting that implementing 19 specific 'On Track' and 'Scale Up' actions can align the world with a pathway to hold warming below 2°C. Full implementation of all 24 actions, including five 'Need Focus' aggressive measures, could reduce annual global emissions by 19 gigatonnes per year by 2030.

• Implementing 19 of the identified actions, categorized as 'On Track' (already within reach) and 'Scale Up' (some progress made), can align the world with the emissions pathway required by 2030 to keep global warming below 2°C.
• Adding five more aggressive 'Need Focus' actions to the 19 mentioned above would place the world more firmly on a pathway to limit warming to below 2°C and move closer to the 1.5°C target, though these actions require a level of coordinated effort not yet established.
• The full implementation of all 24 proposed actions could result in a reduction of annual global greenhouse gas emissions by 19 gigatonnes per year by 2030, a figure roughly three times the 2016 emissions of the United States.
