Prosperous living for the world in 2050
How to reach the 2ºC target: insights from the open-source Global Calculator of the world’s energy, land and food systems
By 2050, the global population is expected to grow from 7 billion today to 10 billion, and the global economy is expected to triple in size. But by 2050, the world needs to cut harmful greenhouse gas emissions to around half of today’s levels to have a chance of meeting our international commitments to constrain the global mean temperature increase to 2°C. Is it physically possible to meet our climate targets and ensure everyone has good living standards by 2050?
