This report synthesizes information from the 127 new NDCs submitted by 154 Parties to the Paris Agreement and recorded in the NDC registry between 1 January 2024 and 31 August 2026, covering about 71 per cent of total global emissions in 2019.

While the report shows that implementation of the Paris Agreement is delivering significant progress towards its goals, particularly in terms of mainstreaming climate in policymaking, it also shows that collective progress in lowering projected emissions remains substantially off track from the reductions required by the science to keep the goal of limiting temperature rise to 1.5 °C this century within reach and to keep temporary overshoot as short and shallow as possible.
