The Global Climate Clock is Ticking: Can International Pacts Save Us?

Posted on May 22, 2025 By Tom Clansy No Comments on The Global Climate Clock is Ticking: Can International Pacts Save Us?

Did you know that the world’s top emitters are projected to miss their Paris Agreement emissions targets by a staggering 360%? This alarming statistic comes from a report by the Climate Action Tracker, a leading global analysis of countries’ climate policies. The report’s findings paint a bleak picture of the world’s ability to meet the ambitious goals set in the 2015 Paris Agreement, which aimed to limit global warming to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels.

The reality is that the current pace of climate change is accelerating at an alarming rate. Rising temperatures, more frequent and intense natural disasters, and devastating heatwaves are just a few of the many consequences of our inaction. The good news, however, is that there is still hope. International climate pacts, agreements, and initiatives are increasingly being forged to address this global crisis.

One such pact is the Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC), a global partnership of governments, international organizations, and private sector companies working together to reduce short-lived climate pollutants. Since its inception in 2012, the CCAC has helped countries reduce their methane emissions by 10 million metric tons, equivalent to taking 2.2 million cars off the road. This is just one example of the impact that international cooperation can have in tackling climate change.

Another notable pact is the European Union’s (EU) Green Deal, a comprehensive plan to make the EU carbon neutral by 2050. The Green Deal aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030 and features a range of measures, including carbon pricing, sustainable land use, and green finance. While the EU’s efforts are ambitious, they also set a high bar for other countries to follow.

The question remains, however, whether these international pacts are enough to mitigate the worst effects of climate change. The answer is a resounding “no” – at least, not yet. The scale and urgency of the crisis demand more decisive action from governments, corporations, and individuals around the world.

One promising development is the growth of climate clubs, international agreements that allow countries to cooperate on specific climate issues, such as reducing emissions from international shipping or managing climate migration. Climate clubs offer a more flexible and dynamic approach to international cooperation, allowing countries to adapt to changing circumstances and work together on pressing climate challenges.

In conclusion, the global climate clock is indeed ticking, but it’s not too late to act. International climate pacts, agreements, and initiatives offer a glimmer of hope in the face of an existential crisis. By working together, sharing knowledge, and leveraging our collective resources, we can still avoid the worst effects of climate change. But the clock is ticking, and it’s time to get moving.
