Where Was The Urgency At COP25? – Below 2C
The 2019 Emissions Gap Report shows that the world needs to cut emissions by 7.6% every year during the 2020s to meet Paris Agreement targets. And yet, COP25 shows none of the commitment and none of the leadership required to make this happen.
During her speech at COP25, Greta Thunberg was brutally honest about the failure of world leaders to act with the urgency that the climate crisis demands.”There is no sense of urgency whatsoever. Our leaders are not behaving as if we were in an emergency. In an emergency, you change your behavior,” said Greta.
