The Global Stocktake at COP28 showed that the projected temperature rise is expected to be between 2.1 - 2.8°C even if nationally determined contributions (NDCs) of all countries are fully achieved...

脱炭素化への変革のレースで、日本企業は勝ち残れるのか――。著者が所属するシンクタンクの地球環境戦略研究機関(IGES)は2023年12月に 「IGES 1.5℃ロードマップ」と題した報告書を公表した。副題を「日本の排出削減目標の野心度引き上げと豊かな社会を両立するためのアクションプラン」としたように、現行の政府によるGX(グリーントランスフォーメーション)戦略の代替案となる戦略プランを提案した。なぜ代替案が必要なのかについて、主に企業のビジネスとの関連を中心に解説する。本稿はその前編である。
Policy Brief
2023年のCOP28で実施されたグローバル・ストックテイクの成果文書では、世界のこれまでのGHG排出量推移は、世界の気温上昇を1.5℃に抑える努力を追求するというパリ協定の目標と合致するものではなく、既存の約束を実施する余地・機会が急速に狭まっているとしている。そして、GHGの大幅で速やかかつ持続的な削減が必要であり、すべての締約国に対して、世界全体の努力への貢献を求めると共に、次期の国別削減目標(国が決定する貢献:NDC)を1.5℃目標と整合するものとするよう奨励している。これを踏まえ、2024年6月17日に発表されたG7プーリア・サミットの首脳コミュニケ において、日本を含むG7各国は「1.5℃に整合した野心的なNDCを提出することにコミット」を表明している。 では...

It then...
