Currently, the global temperatures have risen by 1.2°, experts believe that restricting this rise to 1.5° could help avoid the most serious damages of climate change. IPCC predicts that we have till 2050 to bring this change, and scientists consider this gap of 0.3° as a crucial gap that we must retain at all costs. Experts propose cutting down on coal usage by 90% and restricting the use of oil and gas by 60% at the minimum.
Rationing and decarbonizing is the most straightforward solution, as mentioned by the global experts on climate change. Fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas are the source of just over 80% of the world's energy. They account for 89% of human-derived CO₂ emissions. To avert catastrophic warming, the global community must rapidly reduce how much of these fuels it extracts and burns.
