About this resource:

This is a very useful scientific analysis that tracks government climate action and measures it against the objectives of limiting global temperature rises to 1.5°C and 2°C. It provides information on a country-by-country basis on:

• The level of GHG emissions of different countries;
• The climate action governments have already taken (i.e. their current levels of GHG emissions reductions);
• The pledges and commitments governments have made to reduce GHG emissions; and
• An analysis of whether individual countries are doing their “fair share” on the basis of their level of development.
