2025 is a key turning point for translating global climate commitments into action. It is the 10th anniversary of the Paris Agreement and the first full cycle of its implementation, since the conclusion of the Global Stocktake at the 28th Conference of the Parties (COP28) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. Countries are expected to move into a five-year phase of delivering enhanced NDCs, which will be submitted before COP30 in November and will typically cover targets out to 2035. These updated NDCs are critical for correcting course, as current efforts remain off track to meeting the agreement’s goals.
