Energy and Climate

A report by the International Energy Agency concludes that the world is not on track to limit the rise in global temperature to 2 degrees Celsius.  While the United States and Europe has lower carbon dioxide emissions, worldwide emissions increased by 1.4 percent.  The report offers four policy measures that can help get back on track for the 2 degree limit.  Delaying stronger climate action until 2020 is expected to cost $3.5 trillion.
