94 - Argentina considers Paris agreement exit

Implications for climate and trade

Nation at crossroads ♻️

Argentina, a key player in South America, is considering a significant shift in its climate policy.

Under President Javier Milei’s administration and the new administration in the White House, the country is as well debating whether to withdraw from the Paris Climate Agreement.

This potential move raises important questions: How will it impact Argentina’s economy and international standing? Could it influence other nations facing similar pressures?

The decision has sparked intense global discussion about the balance between economic recovery and climate commitments.

A graph analyzing Argentina's greenhouse gas emissions from 1990 to 2030, excluding land use and forestry. The chart highlights Argentina's Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) target and policies, both rated as 'Highly Insufficient' under a <4°C world scenario, and 'Critically Insufficient' based on fair share criteria. The data reflects the gap between Argentina's current policies, NDC targets, and pathways aligned with the 1.5°C Paris Agreement goal. Source: Climate Action Tracker, October 2023 Update.
