The second, Emily Budgen, will focus on the various tools that have recently been released to measure alignment with the Paris Agreement, eg carbon alignment metrics. Are the tools guiding us in the right direction? https://t.co/64cXK9niYP @EmilyRDB
In @sciam, @rebeccampeters makes the case for why the @IEA must place a 1.5C-aligned energy scenario at the heart of #WEO2021 - if it's to help global cooperation towards that goal at #COP26. #FixTheWEO
