Novembra 2015 je v Parizu stopilo skupaj 197 držav,

ki so se odločile ukrepati

in omejiti rast temperature našega planeta na 1,5 stopinj Celzija.

Sledilec podnebnih ukrepov spremlja predanost

In November 2015, 197 countries came together in Paris

in dejanja 36-ih držav,

and agreed to pursue efforts

ki skupaj tvorijo 80 odstotkov emisij toplogrednih plinov.

to limit the temperature increase on our planet to 1.5 degrees Celsius.

Slaba novica pa je, da te emisije naraščajo

in so že segrele naš planet za 1,1 stopinje Celzija.

The Climate Action Tracker monitors the climate commitments

and actions of 36 countries,

totalling roughly 80 percent of today's global greenhouse gas emissions.

Države si niso postavile ciljev za emisije,

Here's the bad news: those emissions are still rising

ki bi dosegali cilje Pariškega podnebnega sporazuma.

and have already warmed the globe by 1.1 degrees Celsius.

Tudi, če bi vsaka država dosegala cilje, bi temperatura naraščala

The tracker makes two problems clear.

First, countries have not set emissions targets

Even if every country hit their targets, the temperature would still increase

Vlade preprosto ne dosegajo

niti svojih neambicioznih ciljev.

by more than two degrees Celsius over the next 70 years,

Vse, kar je teh 36 držav že storilo,

and continue to rise into the 22nd century and beyond.

in vse, kar še načrtujejo,

bo samo upočasnilo rast emisij.

Second, governments are simply not delivering

Storiti moramo več kot le to.

even on their unambitious targets.

Da bi omejili globalno segrevanje na 1,5 stopinj Celzija,

Everything these 36 countries have done so far,

jih moramo zmanjšati za pol do 2030 in se jih popolnoma znebiti do 2050.

and everything they are currently planning,

will only slow the growth in emissions.

Poglejmo številke.

We need to do more than that.

Med 36-imi državami,

To have a hope of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees,

samo dve sprejemata dovolj ukrepov za zmanjšanje segrevanja na 1,5 stopinj.

we need to cut global emissions in half by 2030 and get to net zero by 2050.

Gambija je obljubila zmanjšanje svojih emisij,

Let's go through the numbers.

čeprav je ena izmed držav v razvoju,

Of the 36 countries analyzed,

ki so najmanj prispevale k nastanku težave.

only two are taking enough action to restrain global warming to 1.5 degrees.

In Maroko gradi vse več sončnih elektrarn

Vsaka druga država ni uspešna.

The Gambia has pledged to reduce its emissions,

2020 je leto, ko bi vlade morale stopiti skupaj

despite being one of the developing countries

that has contributed least to the problem.

in okrepiti svoje cilje.

And Morocco is building more and more solar power.

Do zdaj jih je le nekaj to storilo, medtem ko so druge razglasile,

Every other country is failing.

da se bodo še naprej držale svojih nezadostnih ciljev.

2020 is the year national governments were supposed to come together

Nekaj držav ne zaostaja dosti za Gambijo in Marokom,

and strengthen their targets.

na primer Indija in Kenija.

A države z najbolj razvitim gospodarstvom,

So far, only a few have done so while others have announced

tiste z največjo zmogljivostjo uvajanja sprememb in nudenja pomoči,

they're sticking with their existing insufficient targets.

Now, some countries aren't too far behind The Gambia and Morocco,

But the countries with the most advanced economies,

The United States is currently withdrawing from the Paris Agreement.

A dejanja ostajajo razdeljena.

China shows promise;

Tudi Evropska Unija sprejema prave odločitve

But actions on the ground remain divided.

China is the largest market for wind and solar power,

A ta dogovor še vedno ni dovolj za 1,5 stopinj.

but also for new coal-fired power plants.

Ali še torej ostaja upanje?

And the EU is taking steps in the right direction

Eden glavnih ukrepov je pripravljenost države, da uredi elektriko.

with its green deal to make member countries more sustainable.

Čista energija omogoči drugim sektorjem, da zmanjšajo ali odpravijo emisije.

But this deal is still not enough for 1.5 degrees.

Več kot 50 držav, 30 regij, 160 mest in 200 podjetij

So are there any signs of hope?

One key measure is a country's willingness to clean up electricity.

se je zavezalo k uporabi 100 odstotno čiste energije.

Clean power can enable other sectors to reduce or eliminate emissions.

Danska, Škotska in zvezna država Južna Avstralija

More than 50 countries, 30 regions, 160 cities and 200 businesses

so spremembo že skoraj uvedle,

a velik delež sveta se še mora zavezati in pospešiti

ta prehod.

Več dobrih novic je v prometnem sektorju.

Več kot 20 držav, pet regij, 50 mest in 60 podjetij

Denmark, Scotland and the state of South Australia

are almost there already,

but much of the world still needs to commit to, and accelerate,

se je že odločilo za avtomobile,

this energy transition.

motorna kolesa in avtobuse brez emisij.

There's more good news in the transportation sector.

Norveška predlaga ukinitev avtomobilov na fosilna goriva do leta 2025.

More than 20 countries, five regions, 50 cities and 60 businesses

Medtem pa ZDA dovoljuje podjetjem

have already committed to 100 percent emission-free cars,

izdelavo avtomobilov z večjo porabo

motorcycles and buses.

kar poslabšuje standarde učinkovite porabe goriva.

Norway is mandating the end of all sales of fossil fuel cars by 2025.

Drugi sektorji, kot izdelava jekla in cementa

ali letalstvo in ladjevje

še bolj nazadujejo ter jih je težje urediti.

Meanwhile, the US is allowing companies

to make cars that don't travel as far on a gallon of gas,

A nekatere jeklarne in cementarne razvijajo proizvodnjo brez ogljika,

rolling back fuel efficiency standards.

Norveška in Škotska pa se posvečata kratkim letom brez ogljika.

Other sectors, such as steel and cement-making

or aviation and shipping,

Novembra 2015 se je v Parizu srečalo 197 držav,

are even further behind and trickier to clean up.

But some steel and cement companies are developing carbon-free production,

ki so postavile cilje za boj proti klimatskim spremembam

Ti cilji so bili nezadostni za doseg glavnega cilja

and Norway and Scotland are targeting carbon-free short-haul flights.

In November 2015, 197 countries came together in Paris

in večina držav ni na poti do uresničitve teh nezadostnih ciljev.

These targets were already insufficient to reach the stated goal

Potrebujemo bolj ambiciozne cilje in veliko bolj ambiciozna dejanja.

V naslednjem desetletju moramo preobraziti glavne sektorje globale ekonomije

Te spremembe bodo težke, a ne nemogoče,

We need more ambitious targets and much more ambitious actions.

saj bodo prinesle tudi ogromno priložnosti

kot je ustvarjanje milijonov novih delovnih mest.

In the next decade, we need to transform key sectors of the global economy

Ne pozabite na bistvo:

in order to reduce emissions.

takšna preobrazba bi pomenila tudi čistejši zrak

These changes will be difficult but not impossible,

in varnejšo, bolj stabilno podnebje za vse.

because they will also bring enormous opportunities

like creating millions of jobs.

And don't lose track of this key point:

such a transformation will also mean cleaner air

and a safer, more stable climate for all.
