The Review to be held from 2013–2015 is a key mechanism to assess the adequacy of the long-term global goal, with a view to strengthening the goal to keep long-term increase in temperature to below 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.

This paper shows that ambitious global greenhouse gas mitigation action in a transparent and effective international climate regime is of great importance to Least Developed Countries.

In this paper, authors analyse integrated assessment models find how emissions would need to behave to limit warming to below 2°C.

Aggregations of greenhouse gas mitigation pledges by countries are frequently used to indicate whether resulting global emissions in 2020 will be 'on track' to limit global temperature increase to below specific warming levels such as 1.5 or 2 °C. We find that historical emission levels aggregated from data that are officially reported by countries to the UNFCCC are lower than independent global emission estimates, such as the IPCC SRES scenarios.
