The independent Climate Overshoot Commission comprises very senior officials from 13 countries including four former Heads of State. Its mission is to consider the risks of exceeding the 1.5° C  Paris goal and to recommend a strategy to reduce those risks. A final report is expected by COP 28 near the end of 2023.
