Climate change discussions proceed at the CoP 27.

 

A conference of parties involving countries with the aim of achieving the world’s collective climate goals is being held from 6-18 November 2022 in Egypt.

At the conference, countries gather to act towards achieving goals agreed under the Paris Agreement. This is a legally binding international treaty on climate change adopted by 196 Parties at COP 21 in Paris, on 12 December 2015; and entered into force on 4 November 2016. Its goal is to limit global warming by bringing all nations into a common cause to undertake ambitious efforts to combat climate change and adapt to its effects.

World leaders will discuss interventions they plan to use towards mitigating climate change as agreed in the treaty at the climate implementation summit on 7 and 8 November in Sharm el-sheikh,Egypt. Nations are expected to demonstrate their courses of action adhering to the outcomes of COP 26 held in Glasgow last year

Topics to be discussed throughout the conference from 6-18 are action on climate and SDGs, adaptation and resilience, capacity building, climate finance, climate technology, education and youth, gender, global stock take, innovation, land use, local communities and indigenous peoples’ platform, marketing and non-marketing mechanisms, mitigation, the ocean, pre-2020 ambition and implementation and science.
