Renewables and carbon removal fall short of 2030 climate targets

Original: Global renewable energy expansion faces a 0.9 terawatt (TW) shortfall by 2030, while carbon dioxide removal (CDR) capaci

New analysis warns global renewable energy deployment is on track to miss targets by 0.9 terawatts by 2030, while carbon dioxide removal capacity lags by 1.2 billion tons per year by 2035. Commenters say the gap shows current pledges and policies are insufficient to meet Paris Agreement goals, urging faster permitting, investment and scaled-up removal technologies.

Why now: New figures quantifying how far clean energy and carbon removal deployment will miss climate targets have renewed debate about the credibility of 2030 pledges.
