Observation on data availability/gaps

The NGFS scenarios explore a range of emission pathways and corresponding global warming trajectories (as compared to pre-industrial levels). Across all scenarios energy use is de-linked from its historical correlation with growth. Deep reductions in carbon intensity are further needed to reach net zero carbon emissions.
