In 2018, the world’s top climate scientists at the IPCC told us that we will need to cut carbon emissions by 50% by 2030 to stay on track for meeting the Paris Climate Agreement target of net zero by 2050. The EU and UK were the first to take up the challenge. Then big business added their voice to the call, with more than 300 American companies – from Apple and Coca-Cola to Nike and Walmart – asking Biden to listen to the science and commit to 50% cuts by 2030. Biden listened and now other companies and countries must follow.
