When world leaders convene in Belem, Brazil, next month for the United Nations COP30 climate talks it will mark ten years since the landmark Paris Climate Agreement to cut emissions enough to avoid the most catastrophic warming. But a pair of recent reports show that global action is not even close to meeting that goal.
“None of the 45 global indicators that we track are on pace,” Kelly Levin, chief of Science, Data and Systems Change at the Bezos Earth Fund, said in a press briefing on the report The State of Climate Action 2025.
The report assessed progress on a range of tools to address climate change, including growth of renewable energy and electric vehicles, phasing out coal and subsidies for fossil fuels, reducing deforestation and boosting carbon removal and climate financing.
The researchers found that six of those indicators are improving but too slowly to meet the Paris goals, 29 are lagging, and five are moving in the wrong direction. (Another five lack sufficient data to accurately track.)
“The good news is that reality has outpaced many of the projections a decade ago,” Levin said. But emissions continue to rise, Arctic sea ice has hit a record low, and the past ten years have been the warmest decade on record. Clean energy is advancing but not as fast as the relentless march of climate change.
“While the arc of progress has bent sharply towards possibility,” Levin said, “it must now bend faster toward the pace that science demands.”

The big money grifters have abandoned this stuff.
They must know the evidence is going to become undeniable it’s all a scam.
My sole question is “what’s the next scam”?
Nothing says save the planet like flying in to a remote country, and wineing, and dining tens of thousands of over payed climate communist.
“what’s the next scam”?
A bi-partisan scheme to build a sphere around the Sun to control nuclear fusion.
I wish they’d collapse already. If they EU economy collapses before they can start WW3 everyone wins and a lot of pressure is taken off of world affairs they are intent on stoking.
Wealth Climate Activists are really bummed.
No more climate conferences to fly their private jets to.
They all pulled back when they saw Miami is not under water.
This climate nonsense is really getting old.
UN Climate Talks are not what the UN is supposed to be about. The League Of Nations was disposed of because it could not stop WWII. So they came of with the UN, which has never stopped a war either. So the UN was allowed to morph into a communist operation pushing anything but peace.
The world needs to wake up and discard the UN the same it did with the League of Nations.
If the Yurps are stupid enough to sacrifice their economies to Gaia, that’s their business. We will not be doing so. Thanks.
Exactly. If these grifters ACTUALLY believed this crap, they’d conduct their meetings via zoom calls. Think how much carbon is spewed every time politicians and corporate fatcats hop into private jets to go to one of these junkets.
via zoom calls. They would not even have those. All would be living off grid.
Tell that to Prince William.
Republicans have reversed course and now say Climate Change is real. They’re calling it the Trump ICE Age.
He’s just their pet. He knows nothing.
Look at the big money investment firms. They’re dumping all the global warming garbage.
We have “climate change” daily....
It’s to be 72 degrees here today and tomorrow it’s to be 68 degrees...
CLIMATE CHANGE!!!!!!

Why yes, been donating to this cause for years!
Beaches I visited 50 years ago still the same now.
Time for all of the Enviro-Chicken Littles to pick up all the jobs the new and improved, Air Jordon-wearing, “a better life” illegal alien invaders don’t want to do. Wake up America! Time to make the donuts and mow the lawn.
When the US defaults, the world economy will halt, and no more CO2 will emit...for a week. Then everything will burn, like soddom.
