Climate Action Tracker (abbreviated CAT) is a research group[2][3] with the aim of monitoring government action to achieve their reduction of greenhouse gas emissions with regard to international agreements.[4][5] It is tracking climate action[6] in 32 countries responsible for over 80% of global emissions.

COP26[]

Toward the end of the COP26 climate conference, CAT produced a report concluding that the current "wave of net‑zero emission goals [are] not matched by action on the ground" and that the world is likely headed for more than 2.4°C of warming by the end of the century.[7][8][9]
