What Paris Agreement 2015 - Nationally Determined Contributions, Global Stocktake and 1.5C Temperature Goal requires
The Paris Agreement is a legally binding international treaty on climate change, adopted by 196 Parties at the 21st Conference of the Parties (COP21) in Paris on 12 December 2015 and entered into force on 4 November 2016. Article 2.1(a) establishes the long-term temperature goal of holding the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels and pursuing efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. Article 4 requires each Party to prepare, communicate and maintain successive Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) that it intends to achieve, with each successive NDC representing a progression beyond the Party's then current NDC and reflecting its highest possible ambition. Article 7 establishes the global goal on adaptation. Article 9 provides for finance, with developed countries committed under the UNFCCC and successive COP decisions to mobilise climate finance scaling from $100 billion per year by 2020 to a new collective quantified goal post-2025 (NCQG agreed at COP29 in Baku at $300 billion/year by 2035). Article 14 establishes the Global Stocktake every five years to assess collective progress, with the first GST concluded at COP28 in Dubai (December 2023). As of 2024, 195 Parties to the UNFCCC have ratified the Agreement.
