Emissions are still increasing by more than 2% per year while they should be reducing by 7% per year to meet 2°C. We still need to cut energy use dramatically to achieve actual meaningful reductions in emissions.

For more detail see the UN Emissions Gap Report 2025

Louder for all the c-suite executives pushing mandates.
