BRUSSELS, Belgium, May 3, 2021 (ENS) – A giant gap between the amount of greenhouse gases countries report emitting and the amount of these heat-trapping gases independent scientists estimate from global models that the countries actually emit, a scientific team led by researchers of the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre has found.
The main issue is that there appears to be a “conceptual discrepancy between model estimates and country reporting,” the JRC researchers said.
As a fix, the JRC scientists are proposing a method for improving the assessment of the world’s collective progress towards the Paris Agreement’s goal of limiting the global temperature increase to two degrees Celsius (2°C) above preindustrial levels.
