Dr. Joeri Rogelj:

I will make a short comment on which metrics are being used to report emissions. It is important to highlight that under the UNFCCC, countries are mandated to report their individual emissions, which, scientifically, is the most accurate way to understand what the climate outcomes of these emissions are. It is not that the EU and the UN do not want to know the climate outcomes. The information is readily available to do that. The question is how one sets targets and whether those targets, and the metrics in which those targets are set, reflect the highest possible ambition. That is basically a different discussion.
