The upcoming COP28 climate change summit will mark the first global stocktake to assess countries' progress in meeting the Paris Agreement goal of limiting global warming. This process, established under the agreement, aims to measure the extent to which countries are off track in curbing global warming. The summit's president, Sultan Al Jaber, emphasizes its significance in guiding efforts to limit the global average temperature rise to 1.5°C. The stocktake is a critical task for world leaders gathering at COP28, providing a compass for achieving the climate goal. The summit is anticipated to be the most important since the 2015 Paris Agreement, as it formally evaluates climate change progress since the agreement's commitment to limit global warming to 1.5°C.

COP28 will “provide a worrying assessment of where we are”, writes Sultan Al Jaber, the summit’s president, in a guest essay. “But it is also a compass that can guide us to our goal of limiting the global average temperature rise to 1.5°C” https://t.co/Pdq4LfoHr1

When the Paris Agreement was signed, countries agreed to check in every five years to see where the world stands on climate action. It's called the Global Stocktake. The first-ever stocktake is set to conclude at #COP28. Here's what you need to know. https://t.co/kjSCAFMBat
