Dear all,
Join us on Zoom on Thursday, October 21, for the launch event of the 2021 edition of the Production Gap Report , where leading experts will present and discuss the report’s key findings.
Past editions of the Production Gap Report have shown that governments across the world plan on extracting fossil fuels at a rate inconsistent with limiting warming to 1.5°C or 2°C. The third edition of the Production Gap Report presents the first comprehensive update of the production gap analysis since our 2019 assessment. The report also contrasts net-zero commitments and fossil fuel production plans, and explores how governments worldwide are supporting fossil fuel production through their policies, investments, COVID recovery measures and other mechanisms, as well as how some are beginning to discuss and enact policies towards a managed and equitable transition away from fossil fuel production. This year’s report features individual country profiles for 15 major fossil fuel-producing countries, and a special chapter on the role of transparency in helping to address the production gap.
We hope to see you there!
Sincerely,
The PGR team
