There are three main goals under the Paris Climate Accord:

Limit the rise in Global Average Temperatures to 2° C or 3.6° F above pre-industrial levels by the end of the century, 2100.
Reducing Carbon Footprint to Zero.
Directing financial flow away from fossil fuels, towards greener and cleaner energy sources.
