Climate Action Tracker Rating System

The Paris Agreement's 1.5°C temperature goal aims to limit global warming to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels, as outlined in the Paris Agreement.

The Climate Action Tracker rates, 2020 agreements, long-term aims, and current management against whether they are consistent with a country’s fair share effort to the Paris Agreement 1.5°C temperature goal.

Climate Action Tracker Rating System
CRITICALLY INSUFFICIENT
Commitments with this rating fall well outside the fair share range and are not at all consistent with holding warming to below 2°C let alone with the Paris Agreement's stronger 1,5°C limit. If all government targets were in this range, warming would exceed 4°C.

HIGHLY INSUFFICIENT
Commitments with this rating fall outside the fair share range and are not at all consistent with holding warming to below 2°C let alone with the Paris Agreement's stronger 1 .S°C limit. If all government targets were in this range, warming would reach between 3°C and 4°C.

INSUFFICIENT
Commitments with this rating are in the least stringent part of their fair share range and not consistent with holding warming below 2°C let alone with the Paris Agreement's stronger 1,5°C limit. If all government targets were in this range, warming would reach over 2°C and up to 3°C.

2°C COMPATIBLE
Commitments with this rating are consistent with the 2009 Copenhagen 2°C goal and therefore fall within the country's fair share range, but are not fully consistent with the Paris Agreement. If all government targets were in this range, warming could be held below, but not well below, 2°C and still be too high to be consistent with the Paris Agreement 1,5°C limit.

1.5°C PARIS AGREEMENT COMPATIBLE
This rating indicates that a government's efforts are in the most stringent part of its fair share range: it is consistent with the Paris Agreement's 1.5°C limit.

ROLE MODEL
This rating indicates that a government's efforts are more ambitious than what is considered a fair contribution: it is more than consistent with the Paris Agreement's 1.5°C limit.

Moose population in North America

The moose ( Alces alces ) is the largest member of the deer family, characterized by its massive size, long legs, and distinctive broad, palmate antlers found in males. They have a dark brown or black coat and a humped shoulder. Moose are primarily found in the boreal and mixed deciduous forests of North America, Europe, and Asia. They are solitary animals, often found near bodies of water, and are herbivores that feed on leaves, bark, twigs, and aquatic vegetation. Despite their size, moose are strong swimmers and can run up to 35 miles per hour. The moose population in North America is shrinking swiftly. This decrease has been correlated to the opening of roadways and landscapes into this animal's north range.   In North America, the moose range includes almost all of Canada and Alaska, the northern part of New England and New York, the upper Rocky Mountains, northern Minnesota and Wisconsin, Michigan's Upper Peninsula, and Isle Royale.    In 2014-2015, the North American moo

Map of Fox Species Distribution

Foxes are small to medium-sized members of the Canidae family, which also includes wolves, dogs, and other related animals. There are about 37 species of foxes distributed around the world, and they inhabit a wide range of environments, from forests and grasslands to deserts and urban areas. Below is the map of fox species distribution  created by Reddit user isaacSW Here are some of the most well-known fox species and their distribution: Red Fox ( Vulpes vulpes ): The red fox is one of the most widely distributed fox species and is found in North America, Europe, Asia, and parts of North Africa. They are adaptable and can live in a variety of habitats, including forests, grasslands, and urban areas. Arctic Fox ( Vulpes lagopus ): The Arctic fox is found in the Arctic regions of North America, Europe, and Asia. They have adaptations that help them survive in cold climates, such as a thick coat that changes color with the seasons. Gray Fox ( Urocyon cinereoargenteus ): The gray fox

This map has been created using The Global environmental stratification. The Global environmental stratification (GEnS), based on statistical clustering of bioclimate data (WorldClim). GEnS, consists of 125 strata, which have been aggregated into 18 global environmental zones (labeled A to R) based on the dendrogram.
