Increasing April-May rainfall, El Niño and high vulnerability behind deadly flooding in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iran
This April and May, large regions of central Asia were hit by a series of storms resulting in heavy downpours and flash flooding. Researchers assessed what extent human-induced climate change altered the likelihood and intensity of the weather conditions that caused the floods.

Guide to a good 2035 climate target
In this briefing, the Climate Action Tracker highlights the four key elements needed from the next round of NDCs for 2035: they need to be ambitious, fair, credible, transparent, and include aspects of climate finance and a just and fair transition.

A review of loss and damage in the Caribbean (1994 to 2024)
Loss and damage from climate change has been the lived reality of Caribbean small island developing states (SIDS) for decades. Despite efforts to adapt, it is reversing development gains, leaving lasting financial stress, and causing irreparable damage, including the loss of cultural heritage. This report is the first to provide a systematic overview of how Caribbean countries are framing and reporting on loss and damage.

What does a just transition look like for Caribbean Small Island Developing States?
This briefing aims to provide some preliminary information on what just transition encompasses in the context of Caribbean Small Island Developing States.

Earth Virtualisation Engines (EVE)
The authors propose creating an international federation of research institutions that improve the quality and accessibility of Earth systems data. The purpose is to empower all people to respond to the immense and urgent challenges posed by climate change.

Heavy precipitation hitting vulnerable communities in the UAE and Oman becoming an increasing threat as the climate warms
Researchers have assessed the extent human-induced climate change altered the likelihood and intensity of the weather conditions that caused the flooding in the United Arab Emirates and the northern parts of Oman in April 14–15 2024. The region was hit by exceptionally heavy rainfall causing massive disruption in infrastructure and public life in the area and leading to at least 20 fatalities in Oman and four in the UAE.
Hajj in the heat: from sacred journey to survival test
Extreme heat and humidity led to the tragic deaths of over 1,300 Hajj pilgrims this year. For the Hajj to remain physically possible during summer months, the Saudi government needs to adopt effective adaptation measures and play its part in the global move away from fossil fuels.
How countries can report loss and damage finance needs
Drawing lessons from the Caribbean, we take a look at where, how and why to report on loss and damage finance needs, the types of costs that can be reported and what makes an event ‘climate-related'.
Developing countries need support adapting to deadly heat
Many vulnerable people in South Asia are already struggling to protect themselves from unbearably high temperatures – which are set to worsen.
Sleight of hand: Australia’s Net Zero target is being lost in accounting tricks, offsets and more gas
Australia is unlikely to achieve its net zero target. This is because of its support for fossil gas to 2050 and beyond, it’s long-term emissions reduction plan resorts to unrealistic technological fixes and emissions offsets and because its legislated target of a 43% emissions cut by 2030 is not aligned with a 1.5°C pathway to net zero by 2050.
Projects
Climate Action Tracker
The Climate Action Tracker is an independent science-based assessment, which tracks the emission commitments and actions of countries.
Climate ambition support
Supporting climate-vulnerable countries in strengthening their roles and voices in international climate negotiations.
Understanding the climate impacts associated with temporarily overshooting 1.5°C
This project is working to develop the science around what the climate impacts of temporarily overshooting 1.5°C would mean for our climate.
