The Paris Agreement, three years on, sparks debate about its ambition and effectiveness. While it provides predictability for climate action, experts note we're "not doing enough" for the 1.5°

The Paris Agreement, three years on, sparks debate about its ambition and effectiveness. While it provides predictability for climate action, experts note we're "not doing enough" for the 1.5° warming target. Trevor Houser cautions against a binary view; progress has already averted suffering, and more benefits are achievable while aiming for 1.5°-2°.

Rapid global decarbonization, focused on carbon reduction, is crucial. Joshua Goldstein emphasizes that U.S. climate leadership is vital; its absence hinders other nations' goals. Staffan Qvist cites Sweden's successful hydro and nuclear grid, contrasting it with Germany's problematic 100% renewables pursuit.

This excerpt is from a panel presentation at the Business In The Community Ireland Summit on Corporate Responsibility, held in November 2010.

The panel featured experts including James Quincey (The Coca-Cola Company), Sir Stuart Rose (Marks & Spencer), and Gerard O'Neill of Amarach Research.
