Greenhouse gas mitigation scenarios for major emitting countries:

This report presents an up-to-date assessment of progress by 25 countries towards achieving the mitigation components of the 2025/2030 targets (NDCs and INDCs) presented in the context of the Paris Agreement, as well as their progress towards their 2020 pledges under the UNFCCC Cancún Agreements. More specifically, the report provides an overview of projected GHG emissions up to 2030, taking into account existing and in some cases planned climate and energy policies, and compares them with the emissions targets under the NDCs and INDCs. This report, compared to our 2017 report (Kuramochi et al., 2017), includes the following updates: new policy developments in the last year, review of policy packages by in-country experts and more recent GHG emissions data from national inventories. This 2018 update report finds that countries have made progress toward their 2020 pledges and 2030 NDC targets to varying degrees
