AMSTERDAM, The Netherlands, April 23 -- Greenpeace International issued the following news release:

Even with new national climate commitments from the United States, United Kingdom, China, Canada, and Japan, world governments are yet to outline a clear and solid pathway to the 1.5 oC commitment under the legally binding Paris.
