the warning has been delivered in a report by the university college london, which says about 60 percent of oil and gas which must not be extracted. while almost all of the coal that hasn't been dug up should stay where it is. scientists say those recommendations and others give the world an even chance of staying under 1.5 degrees by 2050. that target was a core set in the paris climate agreement. laura and guilford is from the university of arizona. she says the need for a shift away from fossil fuels is now more urgent than ever. this is significant. it's, they're essentially saying like, we need to stop where we are. we need to just turn to a renewable energy economy now. so like this just transition that we talk about is incredibly complicated because so many people do rely and depend their livelihood, their communities in colorado, in the u. s. where i live, we're watching the tax base decline really rapidly for many communities where oil and gas extraction is declining and then that money funds, schools at fun, hospital, public health, social services, roads. so, you know, thing w

according to a new study from university college. londonil and gas and 90% of its coal supplies must remain untouched by 2050. that's if we are to achieve the goal of the paris climate agreement of limiting global warming to less than three degrees, mother nature speaking back to a screaming at us researchers also say the overall production of oil, gas and coal needs to decrease by roughly 3% every year. for the next 29 years. if it seems like a lofty goal, experts say it is, but it's not unfeasible, with technology advances, making clean energy more accessible now than ever before. the cost reductions we've seen in wind power and solar in batteries for electric vehicles gives us a tool to do a lot of the work in getting to zero emissions by mid century. meanwhile officials say the health of our planet reflects the health of the people living on it. which is why the biden administration recently created the office of climate change and health equity. we will meet the severe threats of the climate crisis and ensure our communities thei. don'
