Goal 13: Climate action
Goal 13 is about immediately combating climate change and its consequences.
Today:
The amount of greenhouse gases continues to increase and climate change is happening faster than expected. The effects of climate changes are visible all over the world. The global average temperature has risen by about 1 °C since pre-industrial times, and sea levels continue to rise. The poorest are hardest hit. Countries have submitted national reduction plans, but they are not comprehensive enough.
What does it take?
Climate change is a global issue and knows no borders. It is important to limit the increase in average temperature to 1,5 °C if the world wants to avoid catastrophic consequences in the future. We need to find global solutions in a number of areas. In addition to cutting emissions and capturing and storing CO2, more invenstment must be made in renewable energy, new industrial systems and changes in infrastructure. In addition, we must invest in protecting, adapting and limiting and extent of damage.
