Abstract:
The Paris Agreement defines its long-term temperature goal as well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and pursuing efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. This report assesses the contribution of the Italian State towards meeting the Paris Agreement’s long-term temperature goal, in line with the principles of equity and common but differentiated responsibilities as enshrined in that agreement, so that its climate commitments represent a “fair share” towards achieving that goal
