Chile is one of the pioneers of the global climate transition: The Climate Action Tracker (CAT) classifies the country’s policies as „almost sufficient“ to achieve the Paris climate targets. This means that if all countries were to do as much as Chile, the 1.5-degree target would not be met – but global warming could be stopped at less than two degrees plus. No other country has been rated better so far. The CAT estimates that Chilean emissions will have already peaked in 2021, well before the targeted peak in 2025.
