NewClimate Institute for climate policy and global sustainability brings action on climate change from ideas to implementation. 🔗(https://newclimate.org/)
Europe is experiencing the escalating impacts of climate change, but its climate ambition is slipping. @climateactiontracker.org still rates the EU as "Insufficient". Policy rollbacks are widening the gap between targets and what is needed to achieve them. 🔗 climateactiontracker.org/countries/eu/
Are climate initiatives delivering real impact? 🌍 Our new fact sheets assess major initiatives on methane, EVs, coal, forests and buildings. The verdict: initiatives can raise ambition but progress often falls short of targets. Read the fact sheets 🔗 newclimate.org/resources/pu...
China’s emissions may have peaked in 2025, driven by rapid renewable growth. But with 291 GW of coal capacity still planned, @climateactiontracker.org still rates China as “highly insufficient.” 👉 climateactiontracker.org/countries/ch...
Big tech's emissions are rising fast, with semiconductor manufacturing being a major hotspot. As GHG-P & ISO develop new accounting standards, our new discussion paper warns that market-based reporting can overstate suppliers' renewable energy claims. newclimate.org/resources/pu...
Accounting for real decarbonisation of tech supply chains
This discussion paper outlines recommendations for scope 3 and product-level accounting of renewable electricity in supply chains.

💫 Last week, our team gathered in Hannover for our annual retreat. We reflected on a year of challenges and achievements, exchanged ideas on the road ahead and left energised for another year of raising ambition for climate action 🌍 #ClimateAction
Europe’s climate transition is advancing, but not fast enough. Nearly 1 in 4 indicators is now on track, yet no transition area is moving at the pace needed. The takeaway: climate action and resilience must go hand in hand. Read @ecno-climate.bsky.social's report 👉 newclimate.org/resources/pu...
⚖️ The debate over market-based instruments in corporate climate accounting tends to get stuck at "yes or no”." We argue it is about “how and why”. Read our new report: newclimate.org/resources/pu...
