As the global warming is increasing, the globe is becoming hotter to live. There are a lot of things that influence the environment. Heat waves are also one of the results of the increasing global warming. Where very few percent of the population is aware of the increasing carbon dioxide in the world, different countries are taking different steps for carbon dioxide reduction. Let us explore more about the current carbon removal plans going on in the world.
Paris Agreement Goals Requires More Efforts To Meet The Current Carbon Removal Plans
Paris Agreement Goals for carbon dioxide reduction seem difficult to meet the CO2 reduction targets. The goal is to remove around 5.1 Gigatonnes of carbon dioxide by 2050. This will help in maintaining the required temperature targets. Also, it will help in arresting global warming within 1.5 degrees Celsius.
The researchers found that every country needs more awareness about this increasing global warming condition. Otherwise, it won’t be possible to become more ambitious for the goal. As humans, it is our responsibility to protect the globe for our upcoming generation. However, the goal achievement seems difficult at the moment.
As per details, the possible reduction by 2030 will be up to 0.5 gigatonnes only. However, there is a requirement to reduce 5.1 gigatonnes of carbon dioxide to achieve the target of net zero emission. By 2050, there will be 1.9 Gigatonnes of reduction only from 5.1 Gigatonnes of the reduction target.
By 2050, there will be a total gap of 3.2 Gigatonnes in achieving the goal. As per the research, the target achievement will be possible only if there are improved efforts and ambition. Along with this, there is also a need to reduce the energy requirements in countries. One needs to pay attention to the actual requirement of the energy and try to reduce the additional consumption. It will contribute a lot to the reduction of carbon dioxide from the environment.
If there are increased efforts in the reduction of energy consumption, the chances are to reduce an additional 2.5 Gigatonnes of carbon dioxide. Therefore, there will be only a gap of around 0.4 Gigatonnes to reach the net zero target. There are other reasons as well for the increasing global warming. It is majorly the increasing demand for land.
With the increase in the construction of houses, there is a need for more and more land. Cutting down trees also results in the reduction of greenery, and increases the levels of carbon dioxide. Stay tuned for more information.
