Netzero

<h1>Objective Net Zero 2050</h1> Demo website: https://lucabron.github.io/netzero/ <hr> <p>On the 12th of December 2015 during the COP21 in Paris, 196 nations agreed to reach carbon neutrality by 2050.</br> For transparency and accountability, it is important that the information about the progress reach as much people as possible. Therefore, this website gives a view on the progress of each country on their parth to carbon neutrality by 2050.</p> <p><a href='https://unfccc.int/process-and-meetings/the-paris-agreement/the-paris-agreement'>United Nations Climate Change:</a></p> <blockquote>The Paris Agreement is a legally binding international treaty on climate change. It was adopted by 196 Parties at COP 21 in Paris, on 12 December 2015 and entered into force on 4 November 2016. Its goal is to limit global warming to well below 2, preferably to 1.5 degrees Celsius, compared to pre-industrial levels. To achieve this long-term temperature goal, countries aim to reach global peaking of greenhouse gas emissions as soon as possible to achieve a <em>climate neutral world by mid-century.</em> </blockquote> <p>The methodology is simple. Given that all countries have signed the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paris_Agreement">Paris Agreement</a>*, global emissions should reach <em>net-zero by the middle of the 21st century.</em> Therefore, taking the change of CO2 emissions from 2015 to the last available data (currently 2022) and <em>linearly extrapolating</em> until 2050, we can have an idea if each country is on the right path to reach net-zero.</p> <p>Note: some countries signed the agreement, but didn't pledge for net-zero at 2050, for example China (2060) and India (2070). But to for the goal of 1.5 degree celsius to be reached, global net-zero needs to be reached in 2050 <a href="https://www.ipcc.ch/sr15/chapter/spm/">according to the ICPP.</a> Therefore, to facilitate the comprehension and the comparison of the data vizualisation, the carbon neutral target is 2050 for all countries.</p> <hr> <p><i><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_parties_to_the_Paris_Agreement">* Iran, Lybia and Yemen have signed but did not ratify it.</a></i></p> <cite>Data Source: <a href='https://github.com/owid/co2-data'>Our World In Data</a> / Hannah Ritchie, Pablo Rosado and Max Roser (2023) - “CO2 and Greenhouse Gas Emissions” Published online at OurWorldInData.org.</cite> <p><a href="https://ourworldindata.org/co2-emissions">More CO2 data vizualisation</a><br> <a href="https://eciu.net/netzerotracker">Each country's net zero pledge</a><br> <a href="https://zerotracker.net/">Countries and companies' pledges</a><br> <a href="https://climateactiontracker.org/">More detailed view on each countries path to net zero</a></p> <!-- Interactive world map data visualization of each country effort toward net-zero emission.
