The promise from many nations is to reach net-zero greenhouse-gas emissions by 2050 (or earlier) and interim targets are essential. But the United Nations has just said that the latest commitments of the 192 parties of the 2015 Paris agreement will equate to a 16% rise in global greenhouse-gas emissions in 2030 compared to 2010.

Methane is responsible for 30 per cent of the current global temperature rise to date globally, and over 14 per cent of Canada’s annual greenhouse gas emissions. “A To advance a climate aligned financial system, fossil fuels like ‘natural’ gas should not be included under a Canadian sustainable finance label.”
