Just a day
before the Paris accord takes effect, the U.N. says nations must make
deeper emissions cuts
It's notable that Lewis said this in a chat recorded weeks ago, well
before publication of the new Science paper — «The Technology Path to
Deep Greenhouse Gas
Emissions Cuts by 2050: The Pivotal Role of Electricity.»
The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP)
Emissions Gap Report 2016 published today is yet another proof that ambitious objectives of the Paris Agreement require stronger short term action already
before 2020 and
deeper emission cuts in the period until 2030.
Basically per the work of Zeebe and others, the idea is that in those times (and today) the rates of CO2
emissions, and temperature increases, overwhelmed the short term feedbacks (biosphere, surface ocean etc),
before the long term feedbacks (
deep ocean, weathering, etc) could
cut in to process them.
