After Paris: countries are not paying their fair share
A review of climate targets and commitments by each country has been released during the UN climate conference in Poland on 6th December 2018.
     The independent review is supported by social movements, environmental and development NGOs, trade unions, faith and other civil society groups from the world over and measures the ‘fair share’ that each country should shoulder in terms of capacity and historical responsibility to reverse climate change.
     It also finds that the global distribution of wealth provides an excellent lens by which to understand national fair shares - the richest ten percent of the global population receives 52 percent of the global income, and so has the great preponderance of the global capacity.
     With the talks reaching consensus that the world is at a crossroads, this critical report After Paris: inequality, fair shares, and the climate emergency finds:
  • The total of all current pledges doesn’t come close to a future consistent with a 1.5°C pathway.
  • Wealthier countries are falling far short of pledging their fair shares of the necessary global action.
  • While many poorer countries are pledging action on scale with their fair shares, without support, they will not be able to ramp up their ambition fast enough.
  • The Paris Agreement is not delivering the radically scaled-up action needed.
