It was an honor to work with such an incredible team to produce this work, published today in Science Magazine WRI Climate World Resources Institute


New paper alert: 🚨🌍🌡️🔥 What do climate pledges mean for global warming? Simple question, confusing answers. In a new study in Science Magazine we shine a new light on this question. (1/n) science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

"Climate policy is moving from setting ambitious targets to implementing them...our analysis shows most countries do not provide high confidence that they will deliver" Joeri Rogelj on new net-zero study, published today in Science Magazine Read more 👇 ow.ly/vXCp50OJS36


Reaching key climate targets will require legally binding and well-planned #NetZero policies. So how do current targets stack up? In a new Science Magazine paper, authors including WRI’s Taryn Fransen and Clea explain:

Current climate policies get us to ~2.7°C warming, higher-confidence net-zero targets to ~2.4°C, missing the 1.5°C global climate goal by a long way. Time to go from pledges to action! Important analysis by Joeri Rogelj carbonbrief.org/guest-post-wha…

Join WRI Climate on June 29 at 9 AM EDT/ 3 PM CEST for a discussion with Taryn Fransen, Cynthia Elliott, Clea, @Taptowntraffic and @vignaleandro on how countries can turn their net zero target pledges into practice. Tap the link below to register! 👉🔗



You've heard of the emissions gap, but what about the implementation gap? Our new comment in NatureClimate unpacks why countries don't deliver on their #climate pledges - a critical question for the Global Stocktake. rdcu.be/dhUk5 1/





"Carbon removal will likely play a role in achieving many net zero targets." - Clea, associate, WRI Climate New World Resources Institute podcast dives into how technological #CarbonRemoval is key to combating climate change. 🎧 Listen now: bit.ly/47I2hGT

Can the #carbonremoval industry reach a positive tipping point that triggers rapid and nonlinear growth? If so, what kinds of supportive policy, financing and infrastructure interventions can be implemented to reach them? Learn more from WRI Climate: bit.ly/45j574R


📅 By 2025, countries must submit stronger #NDCs to meet climate goals. Hear from Sophie Boehm, Senior Research Associate at #SystemsChangeLab, on how sectoral targets can help nations unlock the path to 1.5°C. 🌡️ Watch the video & explore more: bit.ly/4dIJT2J

Nesting sector-specific targets under economywide GHG emissions reduction targets can help #NDCs spur immediate climate action. For Climate Analytics NewClimate Institute @newclimate.bsky.social & WRI Climate we show what's needed across sectors by 2030 & 2035 to limit warming to 1.5°C. wri.org/insights/clima…

As demand for transportation rises, so do GHG emissions 🚗 Clea Schumer, World Resources Institute, discusses the need to transform the #transport sector. #NDCs due in 2025 can include targets for a U-turn in energy use by this crucial sector. Learn more: bit.ly/3TTAZIB


New research from WRI Climate compares the U.S.'s 2030 & 2035 targets to key climate benchmarks. As the largest historical greenhouse gas emitter and a wealthy nation with high per capita emissions, the U.S. must go further—cutting emissions deeper and providing additional
