The Brown to Green Report 2018
Drawing on emissions data from 2017 and covering 80 indicators on decarbonisation, climate policies, finance and vulnerability to the impacts of climate change, this report by the
Overseas Development Institute provides country ratings and identifies leaders and laggards in the G20. It reports that, to stay within the
Paris Agreement temperature limit, G20 emissions must be drastically reduced, after peaking around 2020, to decline to net zero by 2050. Only two G20 economies - Canada and France - generate more income from carbon pricing schemes than they spend on fossil fuel subsidies. This shows that the G20 countries are not yet making financial flows consistent with the
Paris Agreement.https://www.climate-transparency.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Brown-to-Green-Report-2018_rev.pdf
