Addresses the scientific analysis of the gap between country pledges to the UNFCCCC for the Copenhagen Accord and those necessary to meet climate goals. Presented by co-author of the report, Dr. Elizabeth Sawin, Co-Director of Climate Interactive and co-creator of the C-ROADS simulation, which was used in the report.
