About usClimate Analytics is a global climate science and policy institute engaged around the world in driving and supporting climate action aligned to the 1.5°C warming limit.
Decarbonisation targets and 1.5℃ pathwaysTo help governments, civil society and the private sector understand the pace of change required, we develop new methods to calculate the emission reductions needed to decarbonise in line with this planetary limit.

State of Climate Action 2025This report card on climate action shows that global efforts fall far short of what’s needed to limit warming to 1.5°C. While most indicators are heading in the right direction, not a single one of the 45 indicators is on track for 2030. Hard to abate: a justification for delay?Claims from both the iron and steel - and cement - sectors that their emissions are "hard to abate" is slowing down real progress these sectors could be making on cutting emissions. This report unpacks the reality. The global climate risks of Asia’s expansive carbon capture and storage plansThis report looks at the climate and economic implications of Asia’s promotion ofcarbon capture and storage (CCS) to reduce fossil fuel emissions. Why stronger 2030 targets along with 1.5°C-aligned 2035 targets are essentialBoth stronger 2030 targets and 1.5°C-aligned 2035 NDCs are needed to keep 1.5°C alive, argues this briefing. Without both, we risk overshooting the 1.5°C limit higher and longer, crossing dangerous tipping points, and losing sight of the Paris Agreement goals. Production Gap Report 2025Governments plan to produce more than double the fossil fuels than is consistent with 1.5°C - this 'production gap' has widened since they committed to transitioning away from fossil fuels at COP28 in 2023 Submission to the Australian Climate Change AuthorityClimate Analytics Australia's submisson to Australia's CCA on its 2025 annual progress report on climate change. Effect of discontinuous fair-share emissions allocations immediately based on equityThis study provides an equity-based approach to allocating national emissions trajectories. It finds that emissions targets of G7 countries, Russia and China are responsible for most of the global 2030 ambition gap, while only some countries align with their 1.5 °C allocation. Projections of climate change vulnerability along the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways 2020–2100As climate change continues to accelerate, its multifaceted impacts will affect societies across the globe in increasingly complex and uneven ways. This study provides a comprehensive assessment of how socioeconomic factors interact with climate vulnerability up to the year 2100. A blueprint for climate leadership: 1.5-aligned targets for AustraliaThis report answers the question: what would science-based, 1.5˚C-compatible 2030 and 2035 targets, and a net zero roadmap, look like for Australia? Decarbonising China's cement industryCement is an integral base material for the global economy, but it poses a major climate challenge. Given China produces more than half the world’s cement, generating 13-15% of its national CO2 emissions, decarbonising this sector is critical to meeting China’s climate goals. 1.5˚C aligned climate targets for Western AustraliaWestern Australia is the only Australian state without an emissions reduction target. Here, we recommend 1.5˚C aligned targets for WA.
