Abstract

Climate mitigation policies are rarely assessed in terms of the proportion of climate impacts they can avoid both regionally and globally. Research shows that policies with a 50% chance of remaining below a 2 °C rise in temperature may reduce the impacts of climate change by 20–65% by 2100, relative to pathways with a temperature rise of 4 °C.
