The CBAM Vulnerability Monitor (CBAM-VM) is an Excel-based tool designed to evaluate the relative vulnerability of countries or regions to the European Union’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM).

This is the virtual launch event of the 2024 edition of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) Emissions Gap Report series, which tracks our progress in limiting global warming well below 2°C and pursuing 1.5°C in line with the Paris Agreement. Since 2010, it has provided an annual science-based assessment of the gap between estimated future global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions if countries implement their climate mitigation pledges, and where they should be to avoid the worst impacts of climate change. NewClimate Institute has been contributing to the reports each year since 2014...

This page is a Q&A briefing on the importance of 24/7 renewable electricity matching and the technical issues of the competing Emissions First Partnership proposals.

After weakening its updated NDC, removing its 2030 target altogether, and with its pledge to markedly increase fossil fuel production and consequentially increase methane emissions, COP29 host Azerbaijan has earned a "Critically Insufficient" rating from the Climate Action Tracker, in an analysis released today.

As countries prepare to set new climate targets in their updated NDCs following a global commitment to triple renewables at COP28, Climate Analytics and NewClimate Institute present new analysis on what a 1.5°C-aligned rollout of wind and solar could look like for key countries.

The German transport sector is lagging in climate action. Delayed reductions in emissions will require drastic measures to achieve climate neutrality by 2045.

With this summer marking the hottest on record and following a year where the global annual temperature exceeded 1.5˚C, the urgency for accelerated and more effective climate action has never been clearer. As we approach COP29 in Baku, Azerbaijan, critical discussions around the most pressing climate topics – from climate finance, corporate accountability in climate action to national climate targets for 2035 – are laying the groundwork for the UN’s main climate conference. As the countdown to COP29 continues, Climate Week NYC, the largest annual climate event of its kind, will take place from...

Amid growing controversy over potentially loosening rules for offsetting corporate emissions, the Voluntary Carbon Markets Integrity initiative (VCMI) has released a second proposal for its contentious Scope 3 Claim.

Despite the rise of far-right parties in the European Parliament, climate action is here to stay. A strong climate foreign policy is crucial to maintain European competitiveness and global leadership in climate action. The new EU political cycle is the right moment for the EU to carry out essential institutional reforms to strengthen its climate foreign policy. Without these reforms, the EU risks losing its position in the global clean economy.

In this article, we unpack Germany’s hydrogen import strategy and highlight three key considerations for Global South countries looking to export hydrogen to Germany.

Following months of polarised wrangling over the potential role of offsetting to meet corporate climate targets, the SBTi has published two papers which shed light on the future trajectory of the initiative’s standards.

Supporting Argentina’s climate action and NDC implementation in key economic sectors.
