Fossil fuel emissions are projected to rise in 2024, jeopardizing climate targets set for 2030.

Decisive action is urgently needed as negotiations at COP29 face delays, particularly on climate finance, with frustrations mounting after the first week.

The future of climate finance is a pivotal topic at Cop29, essential for aiding developing countries in mitigating climate impacts.

The 10 deadliest extreme weather events in two decades were worsened by fossil fuel use, resulting in over half a million deaths since 2004.

COP29 aims to secure at least $1 trillion in annual funding for climate action in poorer countries, with new levies on shipping and aviation under discussion.

China may be peaking emissions while global carbon levels rise, significantly impacting the green transition.

Current climate action commitments are on track for only a 2.6% reduction in emissions by 2030, far below the necessary 43%.

Canada's minimal impact on global emissions doesn't absolve responsibility; the climate crisis requires collective action from all nations.

Leaders at G7 and climate conferences failed to address the significant impact of animal agriculture on driving climate change.

The NASA visualization displays global carbon dioxide movement, highlighting major sources like the US and China, aiming to study interactions and impact on climate change.

Australia's coal and gas exports contribute significantly to global emissions despite low domestic emissions due to the particular emissions intensity of the exported fuels.

Global emissions and temperatures are outpacing outcomes from COP summits.

COP rules give equal votes to economic superpowers and nations on the front lines of climate change.

The severity of climate change impacts is becoming increasingly evident.

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.

Countries' climate action plans are still far behind what's needed to curb human-caused warming and limit the devastating effects of extreme heat, storms and droughts.

Emissions from the burning of coal, oil, and gas will go up 9% by 2030 compared to 2010 levels, but will be 2% lower than 2019 levels because of some climate action from countries switching to cleaner energy.

The world needs to reduce emissions by around 45% by 2030 to effectively address the climate crisis.

Global emissions have increased every year except during COVID shutdowns.

The annual UN climate conference is often seen as performative and lacking in real action.

The world's nations are taking steps to tackle climate change, but they are still far from making the necessary changes.

At least 149 countries have updated their pledges to curb greenhouse gas emissions, but current policies are not enough to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement.

To limit the risks from climate catastrophes, global emissions would need to fall by 29% to stay below 2 degrees Celsius and 43% to stay at 1.5 degrees Celsius.

Global greenhouse gas emissions increased by 1% between 2021 and 2022, falling short of goals to control climate change.

The world is on track for at least 4.5 degrees Fahrenheit of warming this century, and potentially more than 5 degrees if conditions aren't met.

Humanity has made slow progress in slowing emissions and curbing future warming since the Paris Agreement.
