Raising Climate Ambition at COP26 - A Positive Outcome at COP26 is crucial to putting the World on a Safer Path.
National emission reduction targets submitted in 2015 were not ambitious enough to keep the rise in the global average temperature to ‘well below’ 2°C, let alone to 1.5°C. Anna Åberg, Antony Froggatt and Rebecca Peters argue in this Chatham House paper that substantial progress is needed to enable a positive outcome of the COP26 meeting in Glasgow in three main areas: Raising the ambition of countries
nationally determined contributions (NDCs); providing support for climate-vulnerable developing countries; and agreeing on the remaining details of the ‘Paris Rulebook’.
