Setting Emission Reduction Trajectories in Mediterranean Cities with the Use of Science-Based Targets: The Pathway towards Climate Neutrality and the Ambitious European Goals by 2050

Mediterranean cities, having already suffered from climate change and at risk of being further affected if actions are not taken, need to reduce their emissions and set themselves on a path towards achieving the Paris Agreement ambition of limiting global warming to 1.5 °C. There are several methodo...
