COUNTRY ANALYSIS: #China's 2035 NDC is unlikely to drive emissions down, but should be understood as a floor not a ceiling. We project 2025 could mark a year of peak CO2 emissions if current momentum continues. Its overall rating remains "Highly insufficient" bit.ly/CAT_CHN

COUNTRY ANALYSIS: While wind & solar are rising in #Türkiye, the govt still intends to increase reliance on fossil fuels. The Climate Law lays the foundations for a Turkish ETS and enshrines the #netzero & NDC targets into law. But Türkiye is still rated "Critically insufficient". 🔗 bit.ly/CAT_TUR

COUNTRY ANALYSIS: We have downgraded #Canada’s rating to "Highly insufficient". It has weakened policy ambition, implementation is slow; there's a widening gap between current emissions levels and its 2030 target. This despite 2025 seeing second worst wildfire season in history. bit.ly/CAT_CAN

COUNTRY ANALYSIS: Saudi Arabia’s emissions are on a steep upward trajectory, projected to continue rising through to 2035. No policies in place that wld stop growth or reduce country's dependence on fossil fuels. We continue to rate its climate action "Critically insufficient" 🔗 bit.ly/CAT_SAU

COUNTRY ANALYSIS: Despite a weak target, #VietNam builds momentum for deeper renewable energy integration & coal phase-out. Ambitious new targets & polices for solar & offshore wind signal stronger long-term alignment w the clean energy transition Still "Critically insufficient" bit.ly/CAT_VietNam

COUNTRY ANALYSIS: "much done, much more to do" is our summary of the new UK government's first year on #climate policy, achieving moderate success in addressing the implementation gap. Overall rating remains "Insufficient" bit.ly/CAT_UK

📣 Today we have updated our summary of net zero targets across 40+ of the world's largest emitters. What do we see? 🛑 Ten years after the adoption of the Paris Agreement, the design of most net zero targets remains inadequate. 🔗 climateactiontracker.org/global/cat-n...

COUNTRY ANALYSIS: #Egypt is slowly emerging from its economic crisis, where climate action saw limited progress. The govt has a renewable energy target of 42% by 2030, but deployment has largely stalled. Instead, it has opted for massive fossil gas expansion ➡️ "Highly Insufficient" bit.ly/CAT_EGY

AVIATION: despite agreeing to pursue “carbon neutral growth” from 2020, to set a “long-term aspirational goal of #netzero carbon emissions by 2050,” @icao.int & govts are not taking appropriate action to reduce emissions from international aviation. bit.ly/CAT_aviation

2035 NDC ANALYSIS: Chile's new 2035 climate target is not 1.5˚C aligned according to its fair share. The gap between its target and 1.5˚C compatible pathways has grown. Positive elements: 🟢 commitment to peak emissions by 2025 🟢 2040 coal phase-out 🔗 climateactiontracker.org/countries/ch...

2035 NDC ANALYSIS: while #Norway's new, 2035 #climate target is nominally 1.5˚C compatible compared with its modelled domestic pathway, the #NDC contains several key issues which raise serious concerns about the true ambition of its commitment to reducing domestic emissions. 🔗 bit.ly/CAT_NOR_2035...

COUNTRY ANALYSIS: CAT rates #Russia’s climate action as “Critically insufficient”. Since last assessment: ➡️ Climate Doctrine revised to ignore fossil fuels ➡️ 2035 target achievable with no new effort ➡️ Fossil fuel expansion + crackdown on environmental orgs Read full update 🔗 bit.ly/CAT_RUS

COUNTRY ANALYSIS: #India has reached a turning point in its power sector, making significant progress in renewables installation (4th in world in 2024 cumulative capacity): for the first time, non-fossil sources supplied the majority of new electricity generation in 2024–25 #climate bit.ly/CAT_IND

#China's new #climate target is unlikely to drive down emissions: the country will already achieve it under its current policies. It's a net target that includes land use & forestry; an absolute target wld be more transparent It's a shift from emissions & energy intensity to absolute emissions

Today at the #UNClimateSummit, we expect world leaders to step up, share their new plans and demonstrate their commitment to #ClimateAction. We'll be following the new #NDCs closely. Stay tuned and keep an eye on our Climate Target Update Tracker! ➡️ climateactiontracker.org/climate-targ...

COUNTRY ANALYSIS: We have downgraded the #US climate action to "Critically insufficient" - it's the most aggressive, comprehensive and consequential climate policy rollback the CAT has ever analysed. 🔗 bit.ly/CAT_US

2035 NDC ANALYSIS: #Kenya's new 2035 #climate target would see emissions rising significantly, exceeding our current policy pathway. Its reliance on a target based on BAU, coupled with the govt's stated right to revise it, raises concerns about transparency and accountability. bit.ly/KEN_2035NDC

The Guardian has a draft of the EU NDC. As we commented in the article, it doesn't have any targets in it, and it's still too weak on near-term action, which is crucial for the 1.5˚C warming limit. Our blog on the EU missing in action & what it should do climateactiontracker.org/blog/eu-miss...

What shld #Indonesia's 2035 #NDC look like? We've looked at the draft NDC currently before the Parliament, & find both conditional & unconditional targets to be far from our 1.5°C global least cost & equitable pathways These two graphics illustrate what 1.5˚C targets should be bit.ly/CAN_IDO_2035...

COUNTRY ANALYSIS: given #Ethiopia’s socioeconomic situation & low historic contribution to warming, its policies & targets are a fair contribution to climate mitigation w own resources. Decarbonising economy will take intl support. "Almost sufficient" bit.ly/CAT_ETH

COUNTRY ANALYSIS: #Germany’s new govt coalition contract undermines climate policies, which will not meet the legally binding national climate targets under the Climate Change Act. Our projections see 2030 emissions higher than our previous update. Rating remains "Insufficient" ➡️ bit.ly/CAT_GER

#Indonesia is already set to meet both its proposed 2030 & 2035 targets under existing policies, so they don't drive #climate action. Its emissions are set to keep rising until the end of the decade. Here, we set out how a 1.5˚C aligned target would look climateactiontracker.org/documents/13...

The #ParisAgreement's "Article 6" rules governing purchases of intl carbon credits must drive real, additional & permanent emission cuts that lead to sustainable development, not shifted responsibility. Here, we explain how we'll treat Article 6 in our country ratings. bit.ly/CAT_Article6

NDCs: where do we stand ahead of COP30? Join us for tomorrow's #SB62 side event and dive deeper with our panellists from @caneurope.org, AIDA and CAT (@newclimate.bsky.social & @climateanalytics.org) on how governments can collaborate to deliver on 1.5°C. 📆 26 Jun ⏰ 10:30—11:45 CEST 📍 Kaminzimmer

Third largest global fossil fuel exporter & potential COP31 host #Australia's continued expansion of fossil fuel exports & domestic gas production is fundamentally at odds with its climate ambitions It's not on track to meet its 2030 target, which is not 1.5˚C aligned #auspol bit.ly/CAT_AUS_2035...

COP30 host #Brazil ’s 2035 NDC target lacks ambition for 1.5°C 🎯 ➡️Brazil did not increase ambition of 2030 target ➡️LULUCF’s volatility introduces major uncertainty into overall emissions pathway. High dependence on LULUCF could masks insufficient... 🔗 climateactiontracker.org/documents/13...

As the world’s largest emitter, #China’s NDC will have an outsized impact on global efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C. 🎯 Its 2035 NDC target is expected to cover all GHGs and all sectors, a positive first step. Here, we set out recommendations for the NDC 🔗 bit.ly/CAT_CHN_NDC2...

The #EU would be risking its climate leadership with a weak 2035 target, but appears to be heading that way. It's made great progress on meeting its 2030 target, with emissions decreasing significantly Plans to adopt strong new targets appear to be unravelling 🔗 bit.ly/CAT_EU_NDC2035

We've just published an update on the state of climate action: a mid-year assessment of where we are with the new, 2035 NDC's submitted by governments. We HAD planned to add up the combined emissions reductions, but there was barely anything to quantify. bit.ly/CAT_NDCs_sb62

COUNTRY ANALYSIS: #China’s emissions stabilised at near record-high levels in 2024. Its energy transition reflects two opposing trends: renewables surpassed 1200 GW target 6 yrs early; coal plant construction highest in a decade Rating: "Highly insufficient" 🧵 #climate #UNFCCC #SB62 bit.ly/CAT_CHN

In the lead-up to the decision on hosting rights for the COP31 talks, Australia has much work to do to lift its climate game and ensure its policies withstand global scrutiny. @billhare.bsky.social discusses our updated analysis for #Ausralia #auspol www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

COUNTRY ANALYSIS: #Australia's re-elected government Australia not on track to meet its #renewables target, its flagship industrial emissions policy allows more fossil fuel emissions & its support for the fossil fuel industry remains unwavering. Overall rating still "Insufficient." 🧵 bit.ly/CAT_AUS

COUNTRY ANALYSIS: #Argentina’s new government has taken a step backwards in developing & implementing climate policies, with continuity of previous climate policies now in doubt. We rate Argentina’s #climate action “Critically insufficient” #greensky #NDCs 🧵 bit.ly/CAT_ARG

Japan's new 2035 #NDC of a 60% cut in emissions hasn't changed since early reports in December. Our analysis shows it's nowhere near #1o5C aligned: 81% would be. Details here www.linkedin.com/feed/update/...

Today is the day 198 governments were supposed to have submitted a strong 2035 #climate target. How many have done so? Of the countries we analyse: six. The UK is the only country to have submitted a 1.5˚C compatible target. Read our press release here bit.ly/CAT_Feb10

While we're waiting for the UK #NDC to land, a reminder of the CAT aviation analysis, which takes a look at the UK's aviation policies - particularly in light of the #LHR third runway announcement. Scroll down for the UK country analysis here ==> climateactiontracker.org/sectors/avia...

2035 TARGET ANALYSIS: in the face of a possible US withdrawal fm the #ParisAgreement, the outgoing administration's 2035 target sets out guidance for sub-national entities to continue strong climate action. However, it's not 1.5˚C compatible. 🧵 bit.ly/CAT_USA_2035

ANALISIS NDC: Kebijakan iklim #Indonesiarumit & kontradiktif: adopsi #energiterbarukan lambat, masih bergantung pada #batubara, & emisi signifikan dari #deforestasi akibat kelapa sawit. Peringkat masih “Sangat tidak memadai”. 🧵 bit.ly/CAT_INA

COUNTRY ANALYSIS: #Indonesia's #climate policy is complex & contradictory, with slow #renewables uptake, continued #coal reliance, & significant emissions from palm oil-driven #deforestation. Rating remains “Critically insufficient”. 🧵 bit.ly/CAT_INA
