Nations must urgently enhance their climate commitments to meet the 1.5°C target of the Paris Agreement and prevent severe global temperature rise.
Latest UN report demands 'unprecedented' emissions cuts to salvage climate goals
Urgent action and international collaboration are crucial to limit global temperature rise and avoid catastrophic climate outcomes.
'Quantum leap' in climate ambition needed, says UN report DW 10/24/2024
Urgent cuts to global greenhouse gas emissions are essential to prevent exceeding 3 degrees Celsius of warming this century, potentially abandoning the Paris Agreement goals.
UN: World set to warm by 3.1 C without urgent global climate action
Current climate policies could lead to over 3 degrees Celsius of warming by 2100, far exceeding agreed limits and resulting in climate disaster.

Climate Leaders Debate Goal for Controlling Global Warming
UNDP launched Climate Promise 2025 to strengthen countries' carbon-cutting pledges under the Paris agreement, aiming to keep global warming below 1.5 degrees Celsius.
Europe's top rights court to rule on landmark climate change cases
The European Court of Human Rights is set to rule on whether governments' climate change policies violate the European Convention on Human Rights.
The court's ruling on these cases could potentially set a crucial legal precedent and establish new fundamental rights related to climate stability.
Shell adjusts 2030 emissions target to 15-20% reduction in net carbon intensity from 2016 levels, previously aimed for 20% cut.
Shell prioritizes value over volume in power sales, lowering total growth of power sales which led to an update in net carbon intensity target.
2023 was hottest year on record as Earth nears critical 1.5C threshold
2023 was the hottest year on record, with temperatures approaching the critical threshold of 1.5 degrees Celsius.
Climate change intensified heatwaves, droughts, and wildfires across the planet, causing temperatures in 2023 to likely exceed those of any period in at least the last 100,000 years.
Climate scientists declare 2023 hottest year on record as 1.5C temperature threshold breached every second day
2023 declared world's hottest year on record
Breaches of 1.5C threshold occurred on almost 50% of days
2023 was officially the hottest year on RECORD
2023 was the hottest year on record globally.
The average global temperature in 2023 was 1.8°F (1°C) above the 'pre-industrial' average.
Visualised: how all of G20 is missing climate goals but some nations are closer than others
Not a single G20 country has policies consistent with the Paris agreement's goal of limiting global heating to 1.5C and meeting emissions reduction targets.
Eight G20 countries, including Argentina, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, Russia, Turkey, Canada, Mexico, and Indonesia, are rated as critically insufficient in their climate policies.

Carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels surging to new highs as COP28 leaders meet
Carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels are soaring to record levels, surpassing the Paris Agreement's target for limiting global warming.
Leaders at COP28 must agree on rapid cuts in fossil fuel emissions to keep the 2°C target alive.
Is it too late to keep planetary heating below 1.5 Celsius? DW 11/24/2023
The 1.5 degrees Celsius limit in the Paris Agreement was established as a line of defense against catastrophic climate effects.
Current global emissions need to be halved by 2030 in order to stay within the 1.5 degrees Celsius limit.
