Countries are falling short on climate promises, UN report says

Promises made, promises broken. Countries around the world are failing to live up to their commitments to fight climate change. And a lack of drastic actions means more warming, and with it, more fires, floods and devastation. That is the upshot of a United Nations report out on Wednesday. The report finds only 13% of countries that made climate commitments at last year’s climate conference have followed through. A lot has been done across the world, but not nearly enough. To discuss, The World’s Marco Werman speaks to Taryn Fransen, a senior fellow in the global climate program at the World Resources Institute.
