Temperature limit: keep global warming “well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and to pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5°C”
Net zero emissions: global emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) should decrease as fast as possible, such that they reach “net zero” in the second half of the century.

Netherlands: Must be earlier than world average (developed country) (≈10 years)
Power sector: Must be earlier than other sectors (≈10 years)
Coal: Must be earlier than rest of power sector (≈5 years)

The Paris Agreement sets a new level of ambitionClimate goals in the Netherlands need to be adapted to be in line with new Paris goals • By 2020o Shutdown of all coal power plants
• By 2025o 100% renewable electricityo All new cars must be 100% EV
• By 2035o No more houses heated by gaso No gasoline and diesel cars on the roado 100% renewable energyo Radical changes in industry and greenhouse sector to achieve zero
