In the absence of being able to make that policy call at this time on dangerous interference, what we're doing as an interim measure is working bottom up to see how aggressive can we be in finding a pathway to low - carbon power generation from coal, because that accounts for more than 50 percent of emissions; how aggressive can we be in transitioning to a much greater diversity of fuel supply than petroleum, and vehicle technology, and that's 20 percent of emissions; and then what can we do much more rapidly to halt deforestation, which is 20 percent of emissions.

Furthermore, let me come back to the pathway as the source of cumulative emissions — energy mix, efficiency, technology finance, population, etc. etc., we believe this is the deeper driver to lead to the landscape of cumulative emissions.

A combination of technology and policy solutions could provide a pathway to reduce direct carbon dioxide emissions from the cement industry by 24 % below current levels by 2050, according to a new report by the International Energy Agency (IEA) and the Cement Sustainability Initiative (CSI).

The chart above illustrates potential CO2 emission trajectories under EMF 27 full technology scenarios8 targeting a 2oC pathway (Assessed 2oC Scenarios) relative to the 2018 Outlook, and baseline pathways (Assessed Baseline Scenarios) with essentially no policy evolution.

The roadmap uses a bottom - up approach to explore a possible transition pathway based on least - cost technology analysis for the cement industry to reduce its direct CO2 emissions in line with the IEA's 2DS.

Rich, industrialised countries like the EU and US have a legal obligation under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC — which the talks fall under) to take the lead in cutting their emissions while providing the finance and technology to poorer countries to adapt to climate impacts and avoid the same fossil - fuel intensive development pathways they did.

EnergyVision 2030 suggests one pathway to advance adoption of clean energy technologies in four core areas — grid modernization, electric generation, buildings, and transportation — and demonstrates that even relatively modest increases of clean energy technologies can significantly reduce emissions while delivering consumer and economic benefits for all.

When efficiency is combined with clean heating technologies, a deep emissions reduction pathway emerges.

For the first time, [our] technology - rich modelling expands the time horizon to 2060 and reveals a possible although very challenging pathway to net - zero carbon emissions across the energy sector.»

Jimmy better hope that technology and development provide better pathways for emission reductions.

The conference took place in Brussels and covered three main themes: the opening session «Coal and mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions», followed by a panel discussion on «Creating new pathways to drive deployment of technologies to reduce GHG emissions» and finally the afternoon technology session focusing on «Coal in the global energy mix — pathways to reducing GHG emissions».

This interim agreement will likely include everything from midterm emissions targets, to short - term financing for developing countries to transition to a low - carbon pathway, to substantive progress on provisions for technology transfer and taking on global deforestation.

Analysis shows that strong growth in renewable energy and energy - efficient technologies, together with a national carbon emissions trading program, provide an affordable and achievable pathway for the United States to cut global warming emissions.

WCA believes that the pathway to zero emissions from coal starts with the deployment of high efficiency low emission coal technologies (HELE) and progresses to carbon capture use and storage (CCUS).

Alternative pathways of early deployment of negative emission technologies need to be considered to ensure that climate targets are reached safely and sustainably.

Coal is not the problem, emissions are, and in order to reduce emissions and get us on the pathway to achieving the Paris Agreement's well below 2 degree target, high efficiency low emissions (HELE) and carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies must be supported.

An «emergency transition» like the one implied by the Strong 2 °C pathway (and arguably the Weak 2 °C pathway as well) will be neither cheap nor easy, and this despite the vast flowering of low - emissions energy technology that's now on the near horizon.

The pathway to zero emissions from coal includes high efficiency low emission (HELE) coal technology and carbon capture, use and storage (CCUS).

And, therefore, maybe we ought to look at these negative emissions technologies and pathways more closely.

A number of analyses, meta - analyses, and assessments, including those performed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, and the International Energy Agency, have concluded that deployment of a diverse portfolio of clean energy technologies makes a transition to a low - carbon - emission energy system both more feasible and less costly than other pathways.

Alternative pathways involving lifestyle change, rapid electrification and reduction of non-CO2 gases could reduce the need for such negative emission technologies.

As governments, industry and civil society struggle to achieve the necessary emission reductions to address climate change, scientists are increasingly looking at new technological pathways such as direct carbon dioxide removal from the atmosphere, solar geoengineering (cooling the planet by reflecting heat away from the Earth) and the use of sophisticated satellite technologies capable of...
