Many of the world's biggest polluter nations have missed a U.N. deadline to set new climate targets as efforts to curb global warming come under pressure following U.S. President Donald Trump's election.

Nearly 200 nations faced a Monday deadline to file what the United Nations' climate chief calls "among the most important policy documents governments will produce this century."

In a new action plan submitted to the United Nations, the government also signed up to global goals to triple renewable energy capacity by 2030. However, it has not set targets for sectors like farming, aviation, or energy to address those sectors' contributions to climate change.
