A new report by the U.N. Environment Programme (UNEP) and Stockholm Environment Institute reveals that governments are planning to increase Fossil Fuel Production by 110% in 2030, which would exceed global climate targets outlined in the Paris Agreement. The report states that this would lead to a 2 degrees Celsius warming scenario, double the agreed-upon goal. The report focuses on 20 major fossil-fuel-producing countries, including China and the United States, and calls for the phasing out of coal by 2040 and a reduction in oil and gas use by 75% of 2020 levels by 2050.
