World Data Lab, this would put global temperatures at 1.9 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels in 2100. In a scenario where countries fully implement the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) they made to fight climate change, emissions would amount to 45 GtCO₂e. However, this scenario would also put global average temperatures above the global warming threshold of 1.5 degrees Celsius. In a pathway that is consistent with limiting global warming to below 1.5 degrees Celsius compared to pre-industrial levels as per the Paris agreement, global GHG emissions would need to drop to 11 GtCO₂e by 2050.
Global greenhouse gas emissions are projected to reach over 65 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (GtCO₂e) by 2050 without substantial technological advancements and stricter climate policies. According to Projected greenhouse gas emissions worldwide from 2020 to 2050, by scenario (in billion tons of carbon dioxide equivalent)
