What’s most remarkable is that the decision calls for a 45% reduction of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions–of not only its own but also those of its customers–within less than a decade. This reports that a net 45% reduction in 2030, relative to 2010, would be consistent with a 50% chance of keeping warming within 1.5°C

According to the report , average net annual human-caused GHG emissions were at their highest levels in human history between 2010 and 2019, with urban areas responsible for an increasing proportion of the emissions. The rate of emissions growth year on year slowed between 2010-2019 in comparison to the previous decade.

SCC is a dollar estimate of the long-term damage caused by emitting a tonne of carbon dioxide in a given year. Michael Greenstone, a University of Chicago economist, first calculated it in 2010. Effectively, SCC indicates what price society should be willing to pay now to avoid the future damage of today’s carbon emissions.

Sea level rise is also important in the region, causing saltwater intrusion and salinization. from Chapter 21 of NCA5 Changes like sea level rise are resulting in the loss of culturally significant locations for subsistence harvesting. Other risks include increasing tropical cyclones and sea level rise.

First, new research has traced to just 90 fossil fuel firms the following percentages of anthropogenic carbon dioxide and methane emissions, global mean surface temperature (GMST), and global sea level rise (GSL): From 1880 to 2010: GHGs: 57% GMST: 42–50% GSL: 26–32%. From 1980 to 2010: GHGs: 43% GMST: 29–35% GSL: 11–14%.

But how was Richard Heede able to calculate that, at the time, 90 companies were responsible for nearly two-thirds of the carbon emissions between 1854 and 2010? Just seven private and state-owned companies—BP, Chevron, ExxonMobil, Gazprom, the National Iranian Oil Company, Saudi Aramco and Shell—accounted for a whopping 18.7
