Delivering maximum protection

The goal of the UN Framework Convention on Climate, adopted in 1992, was to “prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system”. 

But by 2020, the damaging impacts of climate change (via intensified and more frequent extreme weather events and earth system, ecological and social process changes) are so great that it is now clear that humans have failed to achieve the UN Climate Convention’s goal – we are now living in the early stages of catastrophic climate change. 

With the failure of the old goal, we now need a new goal to drive our climate action work.

Breakthrough – National Centre for Climate Restoration, has written and released a new report, “Delivering maximum protection”.

Read the report: “Delivering maximum protection: an effective goal for a climate emergency response."
