I moved the below here as not sure useful nowadays.

Whether the Transparency Framework can actually contribute to an increase in climate policy ambition, as set out under the Paris Agreement regime, will depend to a large extent on its application in practice. Will Parties actually fulfil their reporting obligations? And if so, how will they interpret the existing requirements? Although the Conference of the Parties in Katowice in 2018 indicated a great willingness on the part of the international community to ensure greater transparency by agreeing the implementation rules, the weak outcome of the negotiations at the Climate Change Conference in Madrid in 2019 indicates otherwise. For example, at COP25 Parties failed to further specify the transparency requirements by establishing uniform reporting structures and tables. Well-known differences between industrialised countries, which called for greater transparency, and large emerging economies, which were opposed to overly-specific reporting requirements, came to light once again.[1] To enable robust and the most accurate reporting possible from 2024 onwards, these points of contention so relevant to implementation must be resolved in time for the next climate conference which will be held in Glasgow at the end of 2020.

Statement that Paris Agreement legally binding - should it be removed?

https://legal.un.org/avl/ha/pa/pa.html says NDCs not legally binding. But I am not sure as maybe the Swiss judgement makes them binding? Chidgk1 (talk) 18:45, 18 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
