The document highlights a significant gap between projected fossil fuel production for 2030 and the levels required to limit global warming to 1.5°C or 2°C. It warns that expanding coal, oil, and gas production creates infrastructure lock-in that makes emission reductions more difficult and costly. Preliminary findings indicate that by 2030, the world is on track to produce 50% more fossil fuels than a 2°C pathway allows and 120% more than a 1.5°C pathway allows.

  • Current global fossil fuel production projections for 2030 significantly exceed the limits required to meet the Paris Agreement temperature goals, with preliminary data showing a surplus of 50% relative to a 2°C pathway and 120% relative to a 1.5°C pathway.
  • The continued expansion of coal, oil, and gas production creates a production gap that undermines climate ambitions by locking in fossil fuel infrastructure, which increases the cost and difficulty of future emission reductions.
  • Existing climate pledges are insufficient to meet Paris Agreement targets, as current commitments are projected to limit global warming to approximately 3°C by the end of the century; achieving the 1.5°C goal would require a fivefold increase in emission reductions.
