1.5 °C pathway
Emissions pathway consistent with limiting warming to 1.5 °C with no or limited overshoot. According to the IPCC (AR6), it requires cutting global GHG emissions by about 43% between 2019 and 2030 and reaching net zero CO₂ emissions in the early 2050s. Corporate targets validated by SBTi refer to it.
