The election of Donald Trump and the potential rollback of climate policies could significantly impact the United States' efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, threatening progress made under current laws that incentivize clean energy and electric vehicles. This comes at a critical time as climate scientists warn that human activity is causing unprecedented global warming, nearing the Paris Agreement's 1.5°C limit, and emphasize the need for decisive action at the upcoming COP29 climate summit in Azerbaijan. At COP29, leaders are urged to commit to strong emissions cuts to avoid severe climate impacts, while developing countries seek increased financial support to improve climate transparency and reporting. Meanwhile, Vanuatu advances its legal efforts for climate justice, and Pacific nations brace for the cyclone season, highlighting regional challenges and the importance of preparedness.
