英文摘要 | G20 nations have so far failed to make new enhanced emission reduction pledges to keep the world on track to meeting the UN’s 1.5°C global warming target this year, new analysis finds. The major economies in the group have a key role in keeping the world on track to restrict warming to 1.5°C, responsible as they are for around 75% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions. At the COP26 UN Climate Summit in Glasgow last November, all countries agreed to revisit and strengthen their 2030 climate targets (their nationally determined contributions – NDCs – under the Paris Agreement) this year. Yet so far, none of the G20 have meaningfully done so; neither have the hosts of COP27, Egypt, and the Presidency of COP28 in 2023, the UAE. The geopolitical context has changed considerably since COP26, with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. Many nations are looking to speed up decarbonisation to end their reliance on fossil fuels and therefore cut off finance flows into Russia. The European Union’s proposals for doing this show the significant scope this could provide for enhanced ambition in those nations’ NDCs, highlighting a potential win-win for bolstering nations’ energy security, and accelerating measures to tackle climate change. And as fossil fuel prices rise, renewable costs fall, and deployment of renewable capacity accelerates, the economic benefits of investing in climate solutions become ever clearer. The report, Keeping 1.5°C alive: the G20+ gap to close this year, by authors at the World Resources Institute, E3G and the Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit (ECIU) shows:
This report builds on publicly available data and analyses, providing an overview of major emitting countries and upcoming COP presidency countries’ national climate commitments, an assessment of their climate mitigation ambition and implementation efforts, and highlights opportunities for them to step up and raise their ambition in line with 1.5°C ahead of COP27.

Notes to editorsThe report, Keeping 1.5°C alive: the G20 gap to close this year, is attached to this email. It covers the G20, a group accounting for around 75% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, along with host countries of COP27 and COP28: Egypt and the United Arab Emirates respectively.
