Even if Denmark sets the most ambitious climate goal in 2035, we as a country will not live up to delivering our part of the Paris Agreement’s goal of keeping world temperature increases below 1.5 percent throughout this century. This is shown by a new analysis from the Climate Council.
The analysis comes before the political negotiations on a new climate target begin.

According to both the Climate Council and the government’s projections, we will meet that goal.
