Paris-Aligned Phase-Out: Pathways to end fossil fuel production
At this webinar, Professor Kevin Anderson of the Tyndall Centre at Manchester University presents his new research on pathways for phasing out fossil fuel production consistent with the Paris Agreement goals.
It is widely agreed that Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and European Union countries need to phase out coal power generation by 2030, and other countries by 2040 or 2050. This new research for the first time proposes phase-out timelines for oil and gas, taking into account countries’ different capacities to fund a just transition.
The research was commissioned by the International Institute for Sustainable Development.
