Building on the outcomes of COP30 negotiations, he will explore what recent developments means for upholding and implementing ambitious climate targets.
In his presentation, Detlef will provide research-based insights into the state of global climate efforts, focusing on newly submitted NDCs and net-zero targets as assessed in the latest ELEVATE Annual Net-Zero Report.
Based on his work, in 2021 Reuters listed Detlef as the 4thmost influential climate scientist worldwide and in 2024 he was awarded the Spinoza Prize, the highest award in science in the Netherlands.
@detlefvanvuuren.bsky.social is senior researcher at @leefomgeving.bsky.social and professor at @utrechtuniversity.bsky.social . Leading the IMAGE integrated assessment modelling team, his work focuses on using model-based scenarios to identify response strategies to global environmental problems.

👉 It shows that CBAM can alter competitiveness in global trade, favouring cleaner producers and penalising carbon-intensive exporters. However, the concrete impact varies by country and their specific contexts.
The ELEVATE Annual Net-Zero Report 2025 assesses how international trade measures like the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) could affect countries and sectors.

💡Our analysis suggests that continued interdependence, particularly on critical minerals, makes international cooperation essential for the energy transition and global climate action.
🧩Climate policy in a fragmented world...
In the #ELEVATE Annual Net Zero Report 2025 we explore how shifting geopolitics could shape international cooperation, looking into the effects of trade barriers (on trade of fossil fuels), and international technological cooperation.
👉 While views on what constitutes fair and feasible reduction targets differ, for most analysed countries currently proposed 2035 targets require strengthening to better reflect equity principles.
↘️ Four of them - Brazil, EU, Japan and South Africa - have an NDC that is on a linear path towards their net-zero targets. If these countries manage to achieve their NDC target and maintain the same emission reduction rate afterwards, they could achieve their long-term target.
Our latest #ELEVATE Annual Net-Zero Report analysed seven large emitters: the European Union, the United States, China, India, Brazil, Japan, and South Africa.

👉 Most countries have included both CO2 and other greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) in their net-zero target (86%).
❔However, a total of 59 countries currently appear as having “no target”, including the United States. This is 10 countries less, compared to last year's report.
🎯139 countries have a net-zero emission target that is either proposed, pledged, in policy, in law, or achieved. 🛣️118 countries have published a concrete plan on how to reach their target.
📅 2050 is the most common target year for achieving net-zero emissions (80%).
