English term or phrase: through the lens of climate change math
Technically, success should have been gaining agreement for all parties to limit global warming to 1.5°C, backed up with Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs)—plans submitted by each nation that detail how they will deliver on GHG reductions. That did not happen as the aggregate NDCs fell well short of net zero 2050, but, given the enormity and difficulty of the task at hand, that probably was not a realistic expectation for COP26. While politicians may have done well for the hand they were dealt, COP26 can only be viewed as a failure ***through the lens of climate change math***.

German translation:Prognosen zum Klimawandel/zur Erderwärmung
Explanation:
Die von den Politikern auf der COP26 erreichten/ausgehandelten Vereinbarungen werden den Prognosen zum Klimawandel/zur Erderwärmung nicht (einmal) ansatzweise gerecht (damit hättest du "failure" gleich mit erfasst).

Ganz freie Assoziation: Mit der Klimakrise/Physik lässt sich nicht verhandeln - da hätten die Politiker schon sehr weit über ihren Schatten springen müssen.
