Documentation

Description:
Figure TS.1: The graph shows how global average per capita GHG emissions (vertical axis) and relative "Historic Index of Human Development" (HIHD) levels (horizonal axis) have increased globally since the industrial revolution (grey line). The bubbles on the graph show regional per capita GHG emissions and human development levels in the year 2015, illustrating large disparities. Pathways towards fulfilling the Paris Agreement and SDG 13 (Climate Action) involve global average per capita GHG emissions below around 5 tCO2eq by 2030. Likewise, HIHD levels need to be at least 0.5 or greater to fulfill SDGs 3 (Good Health & Well-being), SDG 4 (Quality Education) and SDG 8 (Decent Work & Economic Growth). This suggests a ‘sustainable development zone’ for year 2030 (in green); the in-figure text also suggests a sustainable development corridor, where countries limit per capita GHG emissions while improving levels of human development over time. The emphasis of pathways into the sustainable development zone differ (green arrows) but in each case transformations are needed in how human development is attained while limiting GHG emissions.{Figure 1.6}
