2020 Climate Change Emission Reduction Targets Campaign
The 2020 Climate Change Campaign is directed at getting governments to set new urgently needed short-term and long-term emission reduction targets. The short-term target is to strengthen pledges to the Paris Agreement by 2020 that aim at having countries be 1.5 degrees Celsius compliant by 2030. The long-term target is for countries to pledge by 2020 to be carbon-neutral by 2050, if not sooner.
