The latest report from the Energy Transitions Commission has set out a roadmap for how the world can move on to a 1.5C warming trajectory over the course of the coming decade. Altogether, that would make for a 40 per cent cut in overall methane emissions by 2030. threshold set out in the Paris Agreement. in the current decade?

The wave of fresh climate commitments and net zero targets announced by world leaders in Glasgow this week could well have edged the planet onto a warming pathway that is just about compatible with the temperature goals of the Paris Agreement, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA). of warming by the end of the century.

The International Energy Agency was clear in its landmark report earlier this year: phasing out coal power by 2040 is a key milestone on the path to net zero.

Oil and gas has dominated discussions at past COPs, which have focused on the need to cut greenhouse gas emissions from the energy and transport sectors to tackle dangerous levels of global warming. These attendees come to COPs as “observers” to the talks, with the hope of influencing discussions from the outside.

That’s at risk of happening now as major asset managers have remained silent on a proposed new Environmental Protection Agency rule requiring oil and gas producers to cut their methane emissions. The EPA comment period for the proposed methane regulations lasts until Jan. Methane regulation: Low-hanging fruit on the path to net-zero.

We need immediate action on energy. Countries should also end all new fossil fuel exploration and production, and shift fossil fuel subsidies into renewable energy. By 2030, solar and wind capacity should quadruple and renewable energy investments should triple to maintain a net zero trajectory by mid-century.
