UN chief calls for an "ambition supernova" as nations make minor progress on climate action
- The United Nations has found that governments around the world are still falling short on climate action and are off track to limit global warming, as revealed in a new analysis of national climate plans ahead of COP28. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres states that the world is failing to address the climate crisis.
- Despite some marginal steps towards emissions reduction, countries' climate action plans are still far from what is required to tackle human-caused warming and mitigate the devastating effects of extreme weather events.
- Current plans show that greenhouse gas emissions are projected to increase by 9% by 2030 compared to 2010 levels, but a reduction of 45% by the end of this decade is necessary to limit global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius.
