This briefing lays out the key findings of the IPCC SR15 that inform governments in their task to develop and submit long-term low emission sustainable development strategies, and inform the continuous scaling up of near- and mid-term action and targets, including in Nationally Determined contributions (NDCs), in line with the ratcheting-up mechanism enshrined in the Paris Agreement.

This factsheet focuses on Australia’s vehicle fleet and outlines how it compares with other countries, breaks down the main sources of vehicle emissions and evaluates whether there are policies in place to decarbonise the sector.

Australia National University’s claim that the “electricity sector is on track to deliver Australia’s entire Paris Emissions reduction targets five years early” does not stack up.

This factsheet breaks down where Australia's industry emissions come from and evaluates whether there are policies in place to decarbonise the sector.

In this paper we discuss how the European Commission’s relabelling of the former “hold-below-2°C” pathways associated with the 2010 Cancun Agreements as the Paris Agreement temperature goal – “hold warming well-below 2°C, limit to 1.5°C ” is not correct. By design, the Paris long-term temperature goal is a strengthening of the former 2°C goal.
