Realizing the Ambition of the Paris Agreement
We Mean Business coalition
The Paris Agreement on climate change is unprecedented in its scope, will define the global economy of the 21st century, and has immediate impact on businesses and investors around the world.
The agreement has entered into force with unprecedented speed.
Over 80 Parties representing 60% of global emissions have now formally joined the agreement, including the largest emitters China, the US, the EU, and India. In total, 191 Parties representing 98% of global emissions have signed it and can be expected to join the agreement.
The private sector is ready to be a partner in ambition with governments across the globe. At COP22 we need to move from adoption of the Paris Agreement to its speedy implementation.
