Nations Struggle to Meet Climate Goals: Urgent Call for Action
A UN report reveals that countries are progressing in reducing greenhouse gas emissions but need to accelerate efforts to meet climate goals.

A decade post the Paris Agreement, a recent UN report discloses progress in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, but the pace is insufficient to avert severe climate impacts.
The 2025 NDC Synthesis Report outlines that 64 new climate plans will reduce emissions by 17% below 2019 levels by 2035. However, a significant acceleration in achieving deeper emission cuts is critical. Key countries like China and India have yet to update climate strategies, making comprehensive global assessments challenging.
Despite some nations committing to significant climate action, global efforts need a more robust, rapid response. Financial requirements for NDC implementation range around USD 1.98 trillion. Upcoming COP30 discussions are pivotal for reinforcing international climate cooperation and addressing these challenges.
