Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) are commitments made by countries to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to climate change. These contributions are part of the Paris Agreement, an international treaty aimed at limiting global warming. Each country sets its own targets based on its unique circumstances and capabilities. NDCs are updated every five years, allowing nations to enhance their climate goals over time. They reflect a country's efforts to balance economic growth with environmental sustainability. By sharing their NDCs, countries demonstrate accountability and encourage global cooperation in addressing climate change challenges.
