A new paper published in the Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy<\/em>\u00a0describes a model to predict what is required of the solar industry to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement.<\/h2>\n
The Paris Agreement’s goal of preventing Earth’s average temperature from rising more than 2 degrees Celsius above its level in pre-industrial times could be achievable following a shift to renewable energy.<\/p>\n
The exact consequences of a 2 degrees Celsius temperature rise are unknown; however, scientists predict that extraordinary climatic events would likely make many parts of the world uninhabitable with significant desertification, ocean acidification, a rise of seawater level, and severe natural disasters.<\/p>\n
