“Once again are leading to the same temperature estimate for the end of the century, something around 2.7 degrees (Celsius). So not a lot has changed, one could say. And this is what we also highlight, there’s not enough. The curve is not going down. However, we do highlight that there have been developments in renewable energy. At the same time, there’s still been very high development and investment in fossil fuels and the fossil fuel industry in general.”

7. SOUNDBITE (English) Sofia Gonzales-Zuniga, climate study lead author:
“(This is) driven highly by China. So, China has set up a set of targets, not just one absolute emission reduction target. And so we have to translate all of them into the emission levels. And in this case, the one that’s driving emissions up is their peaking target, because although we expect that emissions will peak very soon or have already peaked, they are peaking at a much higher level than what we had anticipated before. And so this drives the peaking level significantly higher. And that is defined in the upper range of this scenario.”

9. SOUNDBITE (English) Bill Hare, Climate Analytics CEO:
“I think it’s definitely so for the U.S., it’s going backwards. Impact might not be big in the short run, could get big in the long run if it continues. For China quite a mixed picture. Even though our estimate of the effects of policies is influenced very much by China peaking higher than we thought, we do think it’s going to peak and we do see the massive growth in renewables and renewable energy, electric vehicles, also industrial efficiency, de-carbonization beginning to bite in China. So we think their emissions are going to drop.”

15. SOUNDBITE (English) Bill Hare, Climate Analytics CEO:
“It’s the only place where the vulnerable countries, small countries, can be eye to eye with big countries. It’s the only place where, you know, Granada can sit across the table from China or the US, for example. So, it matters in that way. And there’s an awful lot going on that’s positive here. But in the big picture of actually getting stuff done to reduce emissions and ambition, to me it feels broken. I think, and it’s reflected in the very fact that we have petrol state after petrol state running this process. So, this is something that governments could change if they had the will to, they could."
