The 2015 Paris Agreement on Climate Change

The 2015 Paris Agreement is an international treaty where countries commit to reducing their greenhouse gas emissions to limit global warming to well below 2°C, ideally to 1.5°C. It encourages nations to set their own targets, called nationally determined contributions (NDCs), and to update them regularly. The goal is to prevent dangerous climate impacts like extreme weather and rising sea levels. Countries also work together to support each other through financial aid and technology transfer, ensuring that all can contribute to climate action regardless of development status.
