The OECD International Programme for Action on Climate (IPAC) supports country progress towards net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and a more resilient economy by 2050. Through regular tracking, policy evaluation and feedback on results and best practices, IPAC helps countries strengthen and co-ordinate their climate action. It complements and supports the UNFCCC and the Paris Agreement monitoring frameworks.
The Climate Action Monitor is IPAC’s annual flagship publication. It provides a synthesis of climate action and progress towards net-zero targets for 51 OECD and OECD partner countries. It presents a summary of information on greenhouse gas emissions, an assessment of climate-related hazards, and key trends in climate action. Directed towards policymakers and practitioners, the findings confirm, as COP28 gets underway, that without increased ambition and a significant increase in national climate action, countries will not be able to meet the net-zero challenge.
