The selection of a GHG emission reduction target for the
state of Quintana Roo was based on the level of emission
reductions required globally to limit global warming to
less than 2 degrees Celsius (C) above pre-industrial levels.
An assessment of the state-level emission reduction
targets needed to achieve consistency with the goal of
limiting global warming to 2°C was carried out. These
targets also reflect the state's commitments as a member
of the Under2 Coalition. Based on this assessment, the
state of Quintana Roo selected the following state-level
GHG reduction targets consistent with the levels of
emissions required to achieve the goal of limiting global
warming to 2°C:
By 2030, 21% reduction of GHG emissions below 2016
emissions level.
• By 2050, 63% reduction of GHG emissions below 2016
emissions level.
