Global warming outlook worsens as 2024 brought ‘minimal progress’ on climate
Donald Trump's programme in the US is expected to raise global temperatures by 0.04ºC.
Climate Action Tracker (CAT) still predicts that temperatures will rise by 2.7ºC by the end of the century under current policies, but has revised its optimistic scenario upwards, from 1.8ºC to 1.9ºC.
Current Paris Agreement-aligned climate commitments, known as nationally determined contributions or NDCs, currently put us on a path to 2.6ºC warming by 2100 (up from 2.4ºC in 2022).
