Global Climate Pledges in Jeopardy as Nations Miss UN Deadline

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis, reports that most major nations expected to submit their annual climate action plans to the UN will miss the deadline. These plans, a key component of the Paris Accords, are crucial for tracking progress in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The delays suggest either a lack of enforcement by the UN or waning commitment from governments. Even when submitted, many plans may be unrealistic or fall short of prior pledges, raising concerns about accelerating global warming.
