Climate ambition explained: key indicators and net-zero target projections using machine learning
|
Machine learning reveals that major emitters like Saudi Arabia, India, and Indonesia could set far more ambitious net-zero targets — and doing so globally would cut emissions 62% below 2019 levels by 2050. More... |
