🌊 Ocean action is gaining ground in national climate plans.
Over 90% of new 2025 #NDCs from coastal & island nations include ocean measures. But major mitigation gaps remain, from offshore oil & gas to shipping and renewables.

We’re entering the second half of this decisive decade — and the old climate narratives aren’t enough.
In our recent #ACT webinar, Ani Dasgupta asked global leaders a hard question: How do we unlock real climate progress now?
Here’s what they shared: bit.ly/4aZBpoy
Emerging economies are showing that climate action is not only a moral imperative but a pathway to competitiveness, resilience & economic growth.
Colombia, which accounts for just 0.59% of global emissions, is leading the way 👉 bit.ly/4rrOo9a
🌎 The ocean already holds 40x more carbon than the atmosphere and absorbs a 1/4 of our emissions each year.
The bipartisan ReSCUE Ocean Act would boost federal research to better understand marine #CarbonRemoval and its impacts.

Climate impacts are intensifying. Emissions are rising. Finance is shrinking 🌡️
What will it take to unlock real climate progress?
In a recent #ACT webinar, experts shared solutions to move beyond fossil fuels and strengthen climate law.

🔥 Emissions cuts are critical. But they won’t cool the planet alone.
We also need to remove carbon that’s already in the atmosphere.
@WRIClimate outlines 6 ways carbon pollution can be taken out of the air: bit.ly/3O3Remf

⚖️ Major climate shifts underway
🏭 EPA revokes the legal basis for regulating GHGs
⛽ Fossil fuel phaseout talks continue
🌾 New GHG Protocol land rules launch
🌡️ Europe braces for 3°C warming
Read the latest #ClimateDigest 👉 lnkd.in/ergtVQEt
🌍 134 countries have submitted updated #NDCs.
What do these climate plans actually add up to and how far are we from 1.5 °C? #ClimateWatch breaks down the numbers and track progress toward global climate goals.

To reduce industrial emissions, we first need to measure them 🏗️
As green procurement and carbon border policies grow, harmonized methods to measure embodied emissions are essential. WRI Climate explores how green steel and cement are defined worldwide: bit.ly/3ZY0Qll
Growing crops has a bigger climate cost than many realize 🌾
In 2020, croplands emitted 2.5 Gt CO2e, nearly 5% of global net emissions. New analysis explores where these emissions come from and how to cut them:
The EPA has repealed the legal basis for regulating greenhouse gases in the U.S. 🏭 🌬️

As the U.S. rolls back key environmental and climate policies, California continues to lead. 🌱
If the state seizes this momentum, it can meet its net-zero goals and strengthen leadership in scalable, durable carbon removal. Read more: bit.ly/3NpzNw5
💰 Mobilizing 1.3T in #ClimateFinance will require more than money. It demands #transparency, participation and accountability.

💰 Sustainable finance in 2026 faces real headwinds, but momentum is not gone.
6 key opportunities could help scale #climatefinance, especially for emerging markets, by shifting focus from pledges to implementation, coordination, and deployment. 👉 bit.ly/4ayZQKo
🌍 Climate leadership does not require unanimity
In a recent #ACT webinar, Mohamed Adow, Power Shift Africa, explains why coalitions of willing countries can move faster than consensus, shift finance, and accelerate clean energy that others then follow 👉 bit.ly/3ZL9pjf
🚌🚆 Buses and trains are critical to cutting transport emissions. Per passenger, they emit about one quarter of ride-hailing emissions and half of private vehicles.
To stay on a 1.5°C pathway, rapid urban transit must scale 6x faster.
