  • Current national climate targets are insufficient to prevent catastrophic warming, with projections suggesting a global temperature increase of approximately 2.7°C, which is nearly double the 1.5°C threshold recommended by scientists.
  • Developed nations have failed to meet a 2009 commitment to provide 100 billion US dollars annually to developing countries by 2020 for emission reductions and adaptation, subsequently pushing the deadline to 2025.
  • Climate adaptation must be elevated to a global priority, as developing nations are most vulnerable and even wealthy nations like Canada face significant challenges in mitigating losses from warming.
  • The finalization of Article 6 of the Paris Agreement is essential to establish rigorous accounting rules for international carbon markets, specifically to prevent double counting and manage the carry-over of credits from the Kyoto Protocol.
  • To ensure a low-carbon transition, private investment must be aligned with climate goals through mandatory risk disclosure based on TCFD recommendations and the creation of uniform global quantitative indicators for corporate climate action.
