![Coal and LNG emissions could break proposed Safeguard Mechanism](https://ca1-clm.edcdn.com/masthead/_c500x800/tony-mucci-fen9al6caq8-unsplash_2023-05-22-131634_jmtr.jpg?v=1706670773)
The projected emissions from Australia’s existing and committed coal and LNG production would exceed the total emission limits of the government’s proposed Safeguard Mechanism (SGM), according to our new analysis released today.
![Why offsets don’t work: new analysis](https://ca1-clm.edcdn.com/assets/_c500x800/2023-02_offsets_shutterstock_1180200601-original.jpg?v=1706670776)
The impact of the Australian government allowing fossil fuel companies access to unlimited offsets – especially from the land sector – would give a green light to new coal and gas production, lead to a continued rise in emissions and threaten Australia’s ability to meet its climate targets, according to new analysis released today.
![Renewable energy transition in sub-Saharan Africa](https://ca1-clm.edcdn.com/assets/_c500x800/1600px-busy_people_in_addis_ababa_piassa_2.jpg?v=1706670777)
Sub-Saharan Africa is at a crossroads. Its choice of energy for the future will be decisive in achieving its sustainable development ambitions, including clean and affordable electricity access for all. This report provides an overview of the state of the energy transition in the region.
![Massive gas expansion risks overtaking positive climate policies](https://ca1-clm.edcdn.com/masthead/_c500x800/martin-adams-a_PDPUPuNZ8-unsplash.jpg?v=1706670777)
The goldrush for gas is counterproductive to the Paris Agreement. The energy crisis caused by Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine has sent governments scrambling to shore up energy security. In many cases, governments are doubling down on fossil fuels, even though renewables, efficiency and electrification are by far the cheapest, fastest and most secure options.
![Oil majors’ global climate scenarios not Paris Agreement compatible – study](https://ca1-clm.edcdn.com/assets/_c500x800/36888545430_d7d4337b32_o.jpg?v=1706670778)
Climate Analytics research analyses global decarbonisation scenarios from large global fossil fuel companies, finding that the scenarios are not in line with Paris Agreement's 1.5°C temperature rise by 2100.
