Simply, the gap between current levels of climate action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and what we still need to do is laid bare in the 2018 Emissions Gap Report, in the World Meteorological Organization’s provisional statement on the state of the climate 2018 report, and in the IPCC’s landmark special report on 1.5℃ of global warming.
