Summary

The combined mitigation of short-lived climate pollutants (including HFCs) would cut the cumulative warming since 2005 by 50 % at 2050 and by 60 % at 2100 from the CO 2 -only mitigation scenarios, significantly reducing the rate of warming and lowering the probability of exceeding the 2°C warming threshold during this century.
