UNEP Emissions Gap Report 2026: 1.5°C Paris Agreement Target Unachievable
The UNEP Emissions Gap Report 2026 states that the 1.5°C target of the Paris Agreement is no longer achievable, necessitating a new goal to limit warming to 2°C and subsequently return to 1.5°C through drastic emissions reductions and carbon removal efforts. Global emissions reductions of 18% by 2030, 45% by 2035, and 69% by 2040 are required, far exceeding current national commitments.
