How much atmospheric carbon needs to be removed to meet the limit set by the Paris Agreement?

How much atmospheric carbon needs to be removed to help keep the warming limit set by the Paris Agreement at 1.5°C? Let’s see if the current plans are enough.
Current plans to remove atmospheric carbon dioxide are not ambitious enough, according to the researchers.

Current plans to remove atmospheric CO₂ will not be enough to meet the 1.5°C warming limit set in the Paris Agreement, an international team of researchers warns. Since 2010, the United Nations environmental organization, UNEP, has taken annual measurements of the emissions gap: the difference between what is needed to limit global warming to 1.5°C, or at least below 2°C, and countries’ climate protection pledges. And the message from UNEP’s Emissions Gap Reports is clear: climate policy needs more ambition.
