The Agreement set an ambitious goal of limiting the global average temperature increase to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and pursuing efforts to restrict the increase to 1.5°C. The United States, a major force in the successful ratification of the Accords, has since pulled out of the agreement twice, most recently in January 2026.Can international policymaking still play a significant role in addressing the climate crisis?
