(high conﬁdence) {WGIII Box TS.6, WGIII Cross-Chapter Box 3}
The adoption and implementation of net zero emission targets by countries and regions also depend on equity and capacity 
considerations (high conﬁdence). The formulation of net zero pathways by countries will beneﬁt from clarity on scope, plans-of-action, and 
fairness. Achieving net zero emission targets relies on policies, institutions, and milestones against which to track progress. Least-cost global 
modelled pathways have been shown to distribute the mitigation effort unevenly, and the incorporation of equity principles could change the 
country-level timing of net zero (high conﬁdence). The Paris Agreement also recognizes that peaking of emissions will occur later in developing 
countries than developed countries (Article 4.1). {WGIII Box TS.6, WGIII Cross-Chapter Box 3, WGIII 14.3}
More information on country-level net zero pledges is provided in Section 2.3.1, on the timing of global net zero emissions in Section 3.3.2, and 
on sectoral aspects of net zero in Section 4.1.
