The World Meteorological Organization has said that countries must bet big on renewable energy sources by 2030 if they want to achieve zero carbon emissions by 2050.
In the next eight years, the world supply of electricity provided from renewable energy sources should be much greater than the current one, according to a WMO alert (World Meteorological Organization) released by the UN. According to the organization, countries must invest three times more resources so that the supply of sources of clean energy are duplicated. The aim is that there is some hope of containing the increase in global average temperature.
The alert is to put the world on the right path and achieve net zero emissions by 2050. If this does not happen, there is a danger that climate change, increased severe weather and water stress will compromise global energy security. Harming, including the supply of renewable energy on a planetary basis.
The WMO coordinated the research that argues that it is important to have access to accurate information and services on climatology, water resources and climate. It is important to strengthen the resilience of energy infrastructure and meet demand, which has increased by thirty percent over the past decade.

- China plans to collect solar energy in space and send it back to Earth
- Green hydrogen gains momentum in São Paulo: State invests R$32 million in innovative center to lead the fight against emissions and boost clean energy
- Petrobras invests heavily in Brazil's sustainable future, with US$4,3 billion for solar and wind energy, part of an ambitious US$111 billion plan by 2029!
How can renewable energy help achieve net zero emissions by 2050?
According to Petteri Taalas, Secretary General of the WMO, around three quarters of the world's greenhouse gas emissions are produced by the energy industry. To thrive in the 21st century, it is vital to transition to renewable energy types such as solar and wind. In addition to improving energy efficiency, these sources drastically reduce carbon dioxide emissions. polluting gases, such as CO2.
The entity's leader drew everyone's attention to the fact that reaching the carbon neutrality net income by the year 2050 is a goal that can only be achieved if the offer of energy with low emissions is doubled in the next eight years. The global energy system must undergo a comprehensive overhaul to meet the challenges posed by changing weather patterns and the environment.
What is zero carbon and why is it so important for the world to reach this goal as quickly as possible?
In short, the condition of having zero emissions is when the volume of greenhouse gases that are released into the atmosphere is equal to the volume of greenhouse gases that are removed from the environment. Reducing, offsetting and eliminating carbon are the three steps needed to achieve zero emissions.
As climate change is a widespread problem that is getting worse by the day, most scientists believe that the best approach to dealing with it is to minimize global warming. Achieving zero carbon emissions is vital for the future of the planet, and using renewable energy sources is a way to reduce carbon emissions.
