Global Climate Action Stagnates Amid Rising Emissions: Analysis from Climate Action Tracker
A new report from Climate Action Tracker reveals that global efforts to combat climate change have stagnated over the past three years, with little progress observed in 2024. Current initiatives predict a warming of 2.7°C by 2100, far exceeding the 1.5°C target of the Paris Agreement. Despite repeated commitments to enhance climate goals, fossil fuel emissions continue to rise. The potential return of Donald Trump to the U.S. presidency could contribute an additional 0.04°C to global temperatures, as other nations like China might use U.S. policy shifts to justify their own inaction.
