Individual and Government Actions: Climate Change Solutions
While we cannot stop global warming overnight, or even over the next several decades, we can slow the rate and limit the amount of global warming by reducing human emissions of heat-trapping gases and soot (“black carbon”). Widespread actions to reduce short-lived climate pollutants can prevent 0.6°C of warming by 2050. Cutting emissions of carbon dioxide and short-lived climate pollutants is critical to slow the rate of global warming and achieve the 2°C target set by the Paris Agreement. Human
