Local Government Targets for Emission Reduction in the Post-Paris Era

1. Post Paris What does the 1.5oC Paris Agreement mean for Local Government Emission Reduction Targets

2. Today • Target Setting Background and Context • Hitting and Missing Targets • What Paris Means • Science-Based Targets • Around the World

15. Science Based Targets – Australia Australian Climate Change Authority (CCA) recommends national emissions “fair share” budget for 2013–2050: 10.1 Gt CO2-e Source: Climate Change Authority 2014

16. A “Fair Share” According to the CCA 2020 goals: • 15% below 2000 levels = budget of 4.2Gt CO2-e (for 2013–2020) • Beyond 2020: • 40 to 60% below 2000 levels by 2030 • “faire share” budget 10.1 Gt CO2-e, 2013–2050 • AUS Paris INDC: • 26 to 28% below 2005 levels by 2030
