NOS ESTAMOS JUGANDO EL PARTIDO DECISIVO DEL PLANETA TIERRA

The document describes the 'ambition mechanism' of the Paris Agreement, which consists of three primary tools: Long-Term Strategies, Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), and Transparency Reports. It outlines the criteria for effective long-term planning, such as achieving carbon neutrality by 2050 and reducing emissions by 80-90% by mid-century. It also references the First Global Stocktake from December 2023, which indicated that global efforts to reduce emissions, stop deforestation, and triple renewable energy capacity are currently insufficient. The guide provides a checklist for evaluating national climate commitments and transparency reports, emphasizing the need for specific reduction targets and clear accounting of emissions and absorptions.

• The Paris Agreement's ambition mechanism relies on three core instruments: Long-Term Strategies for a 2050 vision, Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) as medium-term (10-year) plans, and Transparency Reports issued every two years to track progress.
• The First Global Stocktake, concluded in December 2023, found that countries are progressing too slowly in reducing emissions, failing to stop deforestation and forest degradation, and providing insufficient efforts to protect biodiversity and ecosystems.
• Critical gaps identified for the 2030 deadline include a failure to triple renewable energy capacity and the continued use of and subsidies for fossil fuels.
• Effective Long-Term Strategies should include a clear path to reduce emissions by 80% to 90% by mid-century, a specific peak emissions date within this decade, and a goal of carbon neutrality and climate resilience by 2050.
• Ambitious national climate commitments should feature specific reduction targets—suggesting 43% by 2030 and 60% by 2035 for each economic sector—and must align with the First Global Stocktake and Sustainable Development Goals.
• Comprehensive Transparency Reports must include detailed tables on national emissions (distinguishing human-generated from naturally absorbed), indicators of mitigation success, information on carbon market participation, and reports on economic loss and damage.
