Bilan de l’Accord de Paris des Amis de la Terre International

Friends of the Earth International evaluates the Paris Agreement as a failure in achieving climate justice, arguing that it lacks binding targets, fails to hold wealthy nations accountable for emissions and financing, and leaves the door open for 'false solutions' like geoengineering.

• Friends of the Earth International concludes that the Paris Agreement fails to provide climate justice because it lacks solid figures or objectives to ensure an ambitious action plan and does not require wealthy nations to contribute their fair share of emission reductions or transition financing.
• The agreement's temperature goals are viewed as insufficient; while it aims to keep global warming below 2°C, there is no binding obligation to limit it to 1.5°C, only a recommendation to 'pursue efforts'. Current commitments are estimated to lead to warming of at least 2.7°C, potentially exceeding 3°C.
• Financial commitments for developing countries are criticized as weak and non-binding. The goal of mobilizing 100 billion dollars annually starting in 2020 was removed from the agreement in favor of a weaker COP decision, with developed countries now intending to pursue this level of aid only from 2025.
• The agreement is criticized for failing to address 'loss and damage' effectively, specifically by excluding terms related to 'compensation' and 'responsibility', and providing no concrete structure or funding for climate refugees.
• The document highlights a total absence of mentions of renewable energy or energy efficiency in the Paris Agreement, and warns that the text allows for 'false solutions' such as carbon markets and bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS).
