The UNFCCC aims to stabilize greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations in the atmosphere at a level where ecosystems can adapt naturally to climate change, food production is not threatened, and economic development can

As most greenhouse gas emissions are due to fossil fuels, rapidly phasing out oil, gas and coal is critical. In a system based on fossil fuels, demand is expected to double until 2050. Switching to renewable energy combined with the electrification of transport and heating can

Carbon sequestration is the storing of carbon in to a reservoir called a carbon sink such as growing a forest or through artificial carbon dioxide removal such as direct air capture.

Transport
Transportation emissions account for 15% of emissions worldwide. Increasing the use of

By sectors and countries
Climate change is driven by:
• greenhouse gas emissions
• loss of carbon sinks such as of tropical forests
• various smaller factors such contrails of airplanes (Earth's albedo and the Solar cycle can also have an effect on the

Wind energy and photovoltaics can deliver large amounts of electric energy but not at any time and place. One approach is the conversation into storable forms of energy. This generally leads to losses in efficiency. A study by Imperial College London calculated

Solar Radiation Management is a geoengineering method that reduces the amount of solar energy absorbed by the greenhouse gases by reflecting the sunlight back through
