This note summarises the analysis and assumptions underlying the emission reduction estimates, including the principles, scope and limitations of the analysis. The New Climate Economy project has estimated the extent of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions that could result by 2030 from undertaking some of the measures and actions discussed in the Commission’s report. The measures selected for analysis, and recommended by the Global Commission, are ones that would bring not only climate benefits, but also multiple economic and social benefits. In many cases, the measures have the potential to achieve net benefits even before considering climate benefits.
