This report examines how the Caribbean can operationalise the Global Stocktake's (GST) “energy package” within its structural constraints. It assesses current transition targets, proposes guidance, and establishes benchmarks to support the global objective of limiting warming to 1.5°C – including country deepdives for Saint Lucia, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Belize, and Trinidad and Tobago.

This briefing explores how the European Union’s new rules for imported oil, gas, and coal could drive methane emissions cuts far beyond its borders – and how, if other major importers follow, they could help close more than 40% of the gap to a 1.5°C-consistent methane pathway.

This submission mainly considers the climate implications of prospective changes to Australia’s gas and LNG taxation regime.

It notes opportunities for Australia to achieve ambitious climate action while safeguarding energy and economic security.

New peer-reviewed papers highlights that adaptation to heat waves in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, relies largely on reactive behavioural responses – such as modifying activity schedules, increasing water consumption, or using outdoor spaces for sleeping – rather than structural strategies. Adaptive capacity is heavily constrained by socioeconomic inequalities.

The International Maritime Organization's (IMO) proposed Net Zero Framework (NZF) offers a critical pathway for reducing emissions in international shipping and aligning the sector with global climate goals. This Climate Action Tracker briefing examines the potential temperature warming implications of the NZF, comparied with a business-as-usual scenario.

This report explores how Caribbean Small Island Developing States can advance a just transition from fossil fuels to a sustainable, net-zero future in the face of climate change, economic vulnerability, and limited resources.
