According to EPI, data reveals that emerging countries do not have to choose between economic security and sustainability. Policymakers and stakeholders in leading countries have taken initiatives to address climate change, demonstrating that concentrated attention can mobilise communities to conserve natural resources and human well-being.
According to the EPI, four nations, China, India, the United States, and Russia, would account for more than half of global residual greenhouse gas emissions in 2050 if current trends continue. Policymakers, the media, business leaders, non-governmental organisations, and the general public use the projected emissions in 2050 metric to assess the adequacy of national policies, highlight the largest contributors to climate change, and rally support to improve the emissions trajectories of those who are off-track.
