A preliminary analysis of a Deloitte report for the Western Australian government about fossil gas exports to Asia.

Ten years on, the Paris Agreement is working, but not nearly fast enough. Since 2015 it has become the essential organising framework for global climate action: uniting countries behind the 1.5°C temperature limit and net-zero goals, reshaping science and policy, helping mobilise climate finance and clean-technology investment, and driving national reforms that otherwise would not have happened. This briefing lays out 22 ways it is changing the 21st century for the better.

Both 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.

This briefing provides a comprehensive overview of what the science is saying now about the 1.5°C warming limit – what it means, what is at stake, and what actions are needed to limit the risks of overshoot and safeguard a liveable future.

This briefing helps SIDS advocate for global adaptation indicators that catalyse support, investment, and political will to scale up adaptation responses, not just track them.
