Scoreboard Background
The Climate Scoreboard is an online tool that allows the public, journalists and other interested parties to track progress in the ongoing negotiations to produce an international climate treaty. The Scoreboard automatically reports, on a daily basis, whether proposals in the treaty process commit countries to enough greenhouse gas emissions reductions to achieve widely expressed goals, such as limiting future warming to 1.5 to 2.0°C (2.7 to 3.6°F) above pre-industrial temperatures.
For more background on the Climate Scoreboard, download our press release, read an essay about how citizens can use the Scoreboard, watch a four minute motion graphics video about the Scoreboard, or explore the analysis behind the numbers.
