    Coal is Exhibit A when it comes to the disconnect between what people *think* is happening and what is *actually* happening. We haven’t made coal history. We’ve reached a global plateau, where declines in some places are offset by increases elsewhere. So much work to do still.

    Our Scenario sees total methane emissions from fossil fuel operations fall by about 75% by 2030. 1/3 of this comes from a drop in fossil fuel consumption. The rest is driven by a rapid deployment of emissions reduction measures & technologies 👉

    This will be a very helpful resource as countries look to this decade

    In February, will launch an expanded version of our pioneering Global Methane Tracker, providing regular country-by-country updates on methane emissions from oil, gas & coal It will show where & how these emissions can be cut – & what policymakers can do to step up progress

    1/ 1.8C, 1.9C or 2.4C or 2.7C? - What’s the warming in line with the pledges? A *long* thread.

    Also, the pledges – even if they're implemented in full – clearly dont yet put us on track for 1.5 °C. In fact, full delivery of all them would close only 30% of the gap to where we need to be in 2030.

    1/ NEW BRIEFING: Making sense of 1.8C, 1.9C and 2.7C. We projected that new NDCs and long-term targets, IF adequately supported and implemented, could limit peak warming to 1.9C & also put forward 1.8C. Yet, what about 2.7C? Briefing here:
