Global climate science and policy institute working to accelerate climate action and keep warming below 1.5°C.
🇧🇷 Brazil’s overall CAT rating of its #ClimateAction has worsened from “Insufficient” to “Highly Insufficient.” Continued expansion of oil and fossil gas production, directly contradicts both Brazil’s climate leadership ambitions. New country summary: climateactiontracker.org/countries/br...

For the 1st time, #China is structurally cutting emissions across power, transport, and heavy industry. major challenges remain: a coal-chemical boom and 291 GW of planned coal capacity keep China off a 1.5°C pathway. Our rating: Highly insufficient. 🔴 climateactiontracker.org/countries/ch...
The EU has gleefully ripped up the progress made over the last decade to reduce climate pollution and to restore nature – so the climate crisis accelerates and people are less protected from the impacts The centre-right and far-right wanted a bonfire of green rules, well it's certainly burning now
Europe heatwave shows need to reject climate denial ‘lies’, says EU green chief
Teresa Ribera blames ‘ideologically driven’ falsehoods, driven by those with vested interests in fossil fuels, for attacks on green policy

As it stands, #COP31 host Türkiye’s climate ambitions and policy actions are not 1.5°C compatible, with the gap between its targets and a Paris-compatible pathway set to widen from 2030 to 2035. Here, we analyse Its 2035 NDC. bit.ly/CAT_TUR_2035...
As a massive heatwave sweeps Europe, a new study led by @jessieruthgs.bsky.social shows climate change will widen Europe’s income gap further. In a 1.5°C world, heatwaves and drought could reduce average household incomes by 7.5% across Europe and by 27% in a 2.7°C world. tinyurl.com/bdfhtdch

A new Climate Analytics study shows that combined heat-and-drought events already reduce average household incomes by almost 3% across Europe, with much larger losses in the hardest-hit regions.

This week, CA presented new evidence on what’s needed in a transition away from fossil fuels to align with the science of 1.5ºC. @billhare.bsky.social : “if countries followed the assessment of Highest Possible Ambition, then we could halt warming within the next 25 years.”
NEW analysis: to peak warming at 1.7ºC & get back to significantly below 1.5°C by 2100, global fossil fuel use must peak now, fall 20% by 2030, halve by 2035 & reach real zero by 2070. 🪨 coal effectively phased out globally by 2050 🔥 gas by 2060 🛢️ oil by 2070 climateanalytics.org/publications...
Today, Climate Analytics presents new evidence on what is needed for a transition away from fossil fuels that aligns with the science. Join the press conference via webcast or in person in Bonn at #SB64. 🗓️ 16 June, 16:00h - 16:30h CEST 📍 Bonn, Nairobi 4, Main Building unfccc.int/event/climat...
Three major energy shocks in a decade, yet many governments still treat #FossilFuel volatility as a temporary disruption. Dependence on fossil fuels leaves countries exposed to geopolitical turmoil and price shocks. As Bill Hare notes, the #ClimateCrisis remains the larger existential risk.
📢 Climate Action Tracker launches its new #Article6 Assessment series: the results so far are sobering. 🔗 Read more about it here: climateactiontracker.org/press/releas... 🌐 Stay tuned for more detailed country assessments! #ClimateAction #CarbonMarkets #ClimatePolicy
The recent heatwaves in South Asia have revealed how climate vulnerability, energy insecurity and geopolitical volatility are becoming interconnected across South Asia. Our expert in South Asia Dr Nandini Das explains climateanalytics.org/comment/sout...

1/ The US–Israel war on Iran has once again put #EnergySecurity at the centre of geopolitical tensions. It is the third major shock to the global energy system this decade, exposing the vulnerabilities of fossil fuel-dependent economies. But this crisis is different.
New op-ed from @billhare.bsky.social in @climatechangenews.com: an exclusive focus on implementing countries’ existing commitments in climate negotiations, rather than also looking at increasing ambition, is dangerously wrong. www.climatechangenews.com/2026/06/09/t...
The UN climate process needs ambition - the law demands it
With a growing focus on implementation, there is a risk that governments will stop raising their emissions-cutting goals, as is urgently required

1/ The 1.5°C national pathway explorer generates the evidence stakeholders need to act. In last week’s webinar, we heard from users of the tool about how it can support advocacy, decision-making, and the implementation of strategies to achieve a 1.5°C-compatible pathway.
Its new climate pledge does not raise ambition, it lowers it. Its new emissions reduction target is set at a higher emissions level than the 2030 target, widening the gap with a 1.5°C-compatible pathway. ➡️ Updated 2035 #NDC analysis: climateactiontracker.org/countries/sa...
Saudi Arabia’s latest climate pledge is once again undermined by a lack of transparency. It provides no 2035 emissions reduction target, and the 2040 target is tied to an unspecified baseline projection, making ambition and progress impossible to measure.
There is no commitment in the #NDC to phase out #FossilFuels, and the Nigerian economy is still heavily reliant on oil and fossil gas exports. Click here to read more about Nigeria’s 2035 NDC target: climateactiontracker.org/countries/ni...
Nigeria submitted its 2035 NDC in September 2025: it is 1.5°C aligned, representing a high level of ambition. However, Nigeria's current policies are projected to significantly increase emissions, which conflicts with the new targets.
