Question
What is a key aspect of the draft of the Global
Stocktake (GST) at COP28 regarding the phase-out of fossil fuels, and how does it align with climate science and the Paris Agreement principles?:Solution
The draft of the GST at COP28 outlines four options for transitioning to clean energy, and option 2 specifically mentions "Phasing out fossil fuels in alignment with IPCC's 1.5 pathways and Paris Agreement principles." This aligns with the global goal of limiting the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and pursuing efforts to limit the increase to 1.5°C, as outlined in the Paris Agreement. This approach reflects a commitment to scientific recommendations for addressing climate change and reducing fossil fuel dependence.
