The Science of Climate Policy: Data, Law, and Accountability

The Science of Climate Policy: Data, Law, and Accountability

The climate crisis is no longer a distant threat—it’s happening now. With the world recently surpassing the critical 1.5°C warming threshold, the stakes for climate action have never been higher. This year, countries must update their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), but how do these commitments translate into real policies and laws? And who’s holding governments accountable?

In this episode, we’re joined by two leading experts in climate policy and governance: Dr. Michal Nachmany, Founder & CEO of Climate Policy Radar, and Catherine Higham, Senior Policy Fellow at the Grantham Research Institute. They’re at the forefront of tracking and analyzing global climate legislation, working to make climate data more accessible and actionable for policymakers, journalists, and advocates.

Together, we explore how countries are shaping their climate commitments, the role of data transparency in driving accountability, and why understanding climate laws is essential for tackling this global crisis. Tune in for a fascinating discussion on the intersection of law, policy, and the fight for a sustainable future.
