We need to phase out coal power 5x faster than we currently are to have a chance at reaching the targets set in the #ParisAgreement. #TogetherForOurPlanet #ClimateAction

The transition to electric vehicles must occur 22x faster to limit warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. #TogetherForOurPlanet #ClimateAction

Tree cover gain must increase at 5x the current rate between now and 2030 to limit warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. #TogetherForOurPlanet #ClimateAction

Shares of low carbon fuels must ramp up 8x faster than they are now. #TogetherForOurPlanet #ClimateAction

We need to electrify 35% of industry by 2030 to avoid the worst #ClimateCrisis impacts – 1.5x faster than recent trends. #TogetherForOurPlanet #ClimateAction
