Achieving the 2025 target will require a further emission reduction of 9 - 11 % beyond our 2020 target compared to the 2005 baseline and a substantial acceleration of the 2005 - 2020 annual pace of reduction, to 2.3 - 2.8 percent per year, or an approximate doubling;» Substantial global emission reductions are needed to keep the global temperature rise below 2 degrees Celsius, and the 2025 target is consistent with a path to deep decarbonization.

This target is consistent with a straight line emission reduction pathway from 2020 to deep, economy - wide emission reductions of 80 % or more by 2050.

«Only a plan that combines carbon pricing with ambitious regulations in every sector of the economy will result in emissions reductions deep enough to reach our current climate targets and put Canada on a path to exceeding those targets.»

(John Connor, CEO Climate Institute): «The debate is shifting into even deeper reductions that we need to have beyond 2020 and it shows that the emissions reduction fund is just an inadequate tool to be the primary tool for emission reductions, while the renewable energy target is a critical target that we need to be strengthening, not weakening.

Carbon pricing is a nice way to help Australia achieve a mid-range emissions target, such as a reduction of 5 - 25 % by 2020, but it is not going to drive the deep, rapid changes required to meet long - term emissions goals.
