This executive summary highlights a significant gap between projected fossil fuel production for 2030 and the levels required to meet the Paris Agreement goals, warning that current expansion risks locking in infrastructure that makes emission reductions more costly.

  • Preliminary findings indicate that by 2030, global fossil fuel production is on track to be 50% higher than what is consistent with a 2 °C pathway and 120% higher than what is consistent with a 1.5 °C pathway.
  • Current climate pledges are insufficient to meet Paris Agreement targets, with current promises likely limiting global warming to approximately 3 °C by the end of the century. To limit warming to 'well below' 2 °C, the UN Emissions Gap Report estimates that countries must triple their emission reduction commitments, and increase them fivefold for a 1.5 °C scenario.
  • The continued expansion of oil, gas, and coal production creates a gap that hinders climate ambitions by locking in fossil fuel infrastructure, which increases the difficulty and cost of achieving emission reductions.
