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

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

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...

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...

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.

Colombia’s 2035 #ClimateTarget sends mixed signals on ambition. While the country has reaffirmed its 2030 commitment & introduced a slightly lower emissions target for 2035, the bigger picture is concerning: progress is not keeping pace with what’s needed for a 1.5°C pathway.

How can cities like Islamabad and Lisbon adapt to growing heat stress? New study from our EU Horizon PROVIDE project incl @fahadiii.bsky.social and @mariamsk.bsky.social explores how nature-based solutions can be used by urban planners to combat heat stress. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

🇨🇴We’ve charted a new decarbonisation path for #TAFF host Colombia to align with 1.5°C. By 2050, Colombia can decarbonise its end-use sectors via electrification and accelerated renewables deployment–resulting in a more efficient, secure system. 1p5ndc-pathways.climateanalytics.org/countries/co...

Adoption of the NZF - or not - could decide if the #shipping sector's emissions would be consistent with global temperature rise being held near 2°C - or allowed to drift toward 4°C under a business-as-usual trajectory by 2050. All eyes on Saudi Arabia and the US who blocked its passage last year.

ANALYSIS: The upcoming Intl Maritime Org will discuss the Net Zero Framework that, if passed, will be a major milestone in decarbonising intl shipping, introducing a global fuel emissions standard & a market-based mechanism to reduce the sector’s emissions 🔗 climateactiontracker.org/blog/rescuin...

Our CEO, @billhare.bsky.social told @afp.com some fossil fuel-exporting countries like the United States, Canada and Australia have the means to undertake a green energy transition. “For these countries, I think it’s a matter of political will.” www.france24.com/en/live-news...

Peru’s latest #NDC marks a step backwards on ambition. The country submitted a conditional NDC target for 2035 at the same emissions level as its 2030 target, which was already not aligned with 1.5°C, in either 2030 or 2035. 🚨 A clear lack of progression. climateactiontracker.org/countries/pe...

The impact of the Iran war has shown how reliant economies still are on #fossilfuels. The @theguardian.com has examined 10 countries most responsible for greenhouse gas emissions. They are splitting into 2 camps: 🔹doubling down on fossil fuels 🔹accelerating toward low-carbon futures

🇮🇳 India’s updated green strategy through 2035 adopts a cautious stance on pollution reduction and #fossilfuel dependence, raising concerns about limited progress in the decade ahead.

Kenya is a bold leader in East Africa on #climateaction. 90% of its electricity is generated from #renewables, and it continues to implement green policies across the economy. However, its success has been something of a double-edged sword. bit.ly/CAT_KEN

BLOG: Recent events are once again exposing India's structural weakness – a deep dependence on imported fossil fuels. Pivoting to renewables and electrification lowers exposure to import shocks and enhances energy security and economic stability, writes Climate and Energy Economist Dr Nandini Das.

Our CEO @billhare.bsky.social told @carbonbrief.org “the majority of countries, across geographies and levels of development, including least developed countries and small island developing states” support a timeline where the IPCC AR7 reports are completed before the next global stocktake in 2028.

PRESS RELEASE: India is likely to be able to achieve its newly-announced 2035 target - to increase its non-fossil capacity to 60% - by, or even before, 2030 under the policies it already has in place. Emissions will continue rising. climateactiontracker.org/press/india-...

Germany’s latest emissions projections, presented on March 12, raise serious concerns about the country’s climate trajectory. The findings suggest that the #EnergyTransition is slowing down, with Germany moving further away from its legally binding targets. 🔗 climateactiontracker.org/press/reacti...

If the EU wants a chance of reaching net zero emissions by 2050 and staying on track with the 1.5°C limit, it needs to ramp up ambition: it needs to at least ensure its 2040 target of 90% net reductions is reached domestically and ideally increase it to 95% 🔗 climateactiontracker.org/press/respon...

New EU Scientific Advisory Board report calls on EU to prepare for 2.8–3.3°C of warming by 2100. But this level of warming is not baked in. New blog outlines why we also need to plan for lower warming, including #overshoot of the 1.5°C limit, in #adaptation planning.
