WRI is a global research organization that works with governments, businesses, multilateral institutions and civil society groups to develop practical solutions that improve people’s lives and ensure nature can thrive. Their work is organised around seven global challenges: Food, Forests, Water, Energy, Climate, the Ocean, and Cities. They analyse these issues through the lenses of their four Centers of Excellence: Business, Economics, Finance, and Equity.

- To avoid the worst climate impacts, global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions must be slashed in half during the next decade and reach net-zero early in the second half of the century. Given this need, a growing number of Parties to the Paris Agreement are adopting net-zero emissions targets. This dataset contains the net-zero targets that have been communicated in a Party’s nationally determined contribution (NDC), long-term low GHG emissions development strategy (LTS), domestic law, policy, or high-level political pledge such as head of state commitment. The Paris Agreement requires participating countries to submit emission inventories that are based on activities within their territory. All the inventories on Climate Watch are based on this production-based accounting.1Licence not specifiedalmost 3 years ago
- Under the Paris Agreement, countries are invited to communicate “mid-century long-term low greenhouse gas emissions development strategies” (long-term strategies, or LTS). These strategies are central to the goal of limiting global warming to well below 2°C and to pursue efforts to limit the increase to 1.5°C, representing a significant opportunity for countries to lay out their vision for achieving a low-carbon economy by 2050 while also pursuing sustainable development. It is advantageous for countries to align their NDCs and long-term strategies for consistency and to avoid the lock-in of carbon-intensive behavior, technologies and policies. This dataset is published via Climate Watch, a free online platform designed to empower policymakers, researchers, media and other stakeholders with the open climate data, visualizations and resources they need to gather insights on national and global progress on climate change. All the inventories on Climate Watch are based on this production-based accounting.1Licence not specifiedalmost 3 years ago
- Under the Paris Agreement, nearly every nation made a commitment to tackle climate change and strengthen their efforts over time. To explore the content of these Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), search for key terms. Also, this dataset allows you to analyze and compare NDCs using over 150 structured indicators. Parties (representing 171 countries) have submitted their new or updated NDCs. This dataset is published via Climate Watch, a free online platform designed to empower policymakers, researchers, media and other stakeholders with the open climate data, visualizations and resources they need to gather insights on national and global progress on climate change. All the inventories on Climate Watch are based on this production-based accounting.1Licence not specifiedalmost 3 years ago
- Identify potential alignment between the targets, actions, policy measures, and needs in countries' Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) targets. The analysis covers NDCs submitted prior to May 2021. This dataset is published via Climate Watch, a free online platform designed to empower policymakers, researchers, media, and other stakeholders with the open climate data, visualizations, and resources they need to gather insights on national and global progress on climate change.

- Emissions Pathways are transformational process that delivers long-term emissions reductions and sustainable development in collaboration with local communities, businesses and other key actors. This dataset is published via Climate Watch, a free online platform designed to empower policymakers, researchers, media and other stakeholders with the open climate data, visualizations and resources they need to gather insights on national and global progress on climate change. The Paris Agreement requires participating countries to submit emission inventories that are based on activities within their territory.

- Human-caused greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions drive climate change. This dataset includes time series of emissions data by country using four measures that differ in scope and methodology: Climate Watch, PIK PRIMAP-hist, UNFCCC and GCP. The Paris Agreement requires participating countries to submit emission inventories that are based on activities within their territory. All the inventories on Climate Watch are based on this production-based accounting. This dataset is published via Climate Watch, a free online platform designed to empower policymakers, researchers, media and other stakeholders with the open climate data, visualizations and resources they need to gather insights on national and global progress on climate change.1Licence not specifiedalmost 3 years ago
