NO The Emissions Gap Report 2023 highlights record-breaking temperatures and warns that current pledges under the ParisAgreement could lead to a 2.5-2.9°C temperature rise above pre-industrial levels this century, emphasizing the urgent need forincreased climate action. As per the 2023 NDC Synthesis Report, although emissions stabilize post-2030, they fail to declinerapidly enough to meet scientific targets outlined by the IPCC in its sixth Assessment Report. The IPCC emphasizes that globalgreenhouse gas emissions must decrease by 43% by 2030 and 60% by 2035 relative to 2019 levels to align with pathwayslimiting global warming to 1.5°C. The rapid and targeted reduction of methane and other short-lived non-CO2 pollutantemissions plays a critical role, complementing deep decarbonisation efforts. Only a dual track will enable us to curb the globalwarming curve fast enough. Cuts in short-lived non-CO2 pollutants, due their high global warming potential and shorter lifetimein the atmosphere, can reduce 0.5 degrees of warming by 2050.
