CCPI - Climate Change Performance Index

In 2024, more than half of the population worldwide has the opportunity to vote. The outcome of those elections will have a crucial impact on #climate politics in the coming years. 🇭🇷 #Croatia held parliamentary elections in April. We discussed the implications for climate policy in the coming years with Maja Bratko, Senior Expert at Društvo za oblikovanje održivog razvoja (DOOR).

In the #CCPI2024, we have identified Brazil as the winner and the United Kingdom as the loser of this edition of the index. Since Brazil’s new President Lula took office in January 2023, the country has reverted to its initial NDC, which had been weakened under Bolsonaro's legislative regime. Lula's administration has also limited deforestation while pushing for a wider use of renewables. However, the country's legislative frameworks will only be effective with steady implementation and the gradual displacement of fossil fuels. The new UK government lacks ambition on climate policy, delaying or undermining legislations, and reversing previous progress. The country performs poorly due to expanding domestic fossil fuel use and slow progress in renewable energy. The UK needs to increase its climate ambitions in line with the Paris Agreement. You can find detailed analysis of the performance of Brazil, the UK, and all other 61 countries + the EU on our website: ccpi.org

Renewables are on the rise: Many countries already use renewables to drive their climate change mitigation efforts. In this post, we take a closer look at Estonia, Vietnam & Denmark and their performance in the renewable energy category of the #CCPI2024. You can find all the results on our website: ccpi.org

🇩🇪 - Deutschland landet im #CCPI2024 auf dem 14. Platz und verbessert sich damit im Vergleich zum Vorjahr um 2 Plätze. Die Uneinigkeit der Ampel-Regierung verhindert aber eine ambitioniertere Klimapolitik. Die Abschaffung der Sektorziele im Klimaschutzgesetz verschleiert die Zielverfehlungen in den Bereichen Gebäude und Verkehr. 🇬🇧 - Germany ranks 14th in the #CCPI2024, improving two places compared to last year. However, the disagreement within the coalition government prevents a more ambitious climate policy. The elimination of sectoral targets in the Climate Protection Act obscures the missed goals in the building and transport sectors.
