The era of overshoot will significantly increase climate impacts and risks - but with a fossil fuel phase-out and other action, global warming can be returned below 1.5°C this century

Adaptation to climate-change-induced water scarcity requires structured approaches to develop strategies that are plausible under uncertain climate and socioeconomic futures.

Rapid fossil fuel phase out and methane cuts could dramatically slow global warming with further action bringing temperatures back well below 1.5°C this century.

Real-world progress is too slow to deliver the renewable energy and energy efficiency targets agreed at COP28, and the '35 by 35' electrification target proposed for COP31 - and governments will need to over-achieve against them in order to minimise climate overshoot and return global warming well below 1.5°C by 2100

While Australia’s transition away from fossil fuels is often framed as a trade-off between climate ambition and jobs, this report finds that such a transition will generate major employment opportunities across the country.

The richest and most transition-ready fossil fuel producing countries need to start cutting output now and end it entirely within 20 years, as part of a just global energy transition that can minimise overshoot and return global warming below 1.5°C by 2100
