climate action pledges

Climate action pledges are commitments made by governments, companies, or organizations to reduce their impact on the environment, particularly greenhouse gas emissions. These pledges aim to limit global warming by adopting policies, investing in clean energy, and changing behaviors. They serve as a formal promise to meet specific targets—like cutting emissions by a certain percentage or increasing renewable energy use—often outlined in international agreements such as the Paris Agreement. These commitments are vital steps toward mitigating climate change and protecting ecosystems, public health, and economies.
