Why will 2025 be a decisive year for climate action?

15/01/2025

This year promises to be a pivotal year in the fight against climate change, as the consequences of global warming become increasingly evident (2024 was the warmest year on record), but the global community faces a deadline to meet key climate commitments and accelerate the transition to a sustainable future.

Some of the actions to achieve this include the following:

• Review of the Paris agreement, countries that have signed the agreement are required to submit a review of their nationally determined contributions; targets set to limit global warming to 1.5 °C. The United States plays a key role in this agreement due to its economic and political influence, in addition to being one of the largest emitters of greenhouse gases, so the actions of this country have a significant impact globally. If the Trump administration decides to leave the Paris agreement, its future would be seriously compromised.
• Implementation of stricter global regulations, including the European Union's carbon border adjustment, and the tightening of energy transition standards in several countries. This regulation will particularly affect some industries, such as the automotive industry, and indirectly the entire ancillary industry related to the sector, such as adhesives.
• Green financing, with investments or emissions? in green bonds that allow companies to finance projects aligned with sustainability.

In conclusion, in 2025, the course of global climate action will be redefined, with decisions that will determine the direction of the impacts of climate change and the environmental crisis.
