Every year, the United Nations holds a global climate change conference known as a COP which stands for ‘Conference of the Parties’.

This year marks the 26th anniversary, giving it the name COP26 with the UK as its president.

Among the largest international meetings in the world, the summit is regarded by many to be the world’s last best chance to get runaway climate change under control.

It is seen as a critical opportunity to win more ambitious country-to-country commitments on achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 and keeping the global average temperature rise to well below 2 degrees Celsius this century.

Ahead of the conference at the end of October the Evening Standard teamed up with Lottie Dodwell, Senior Interpretation Developer at the Natural History Museum, to bring you some shocking facts about the climate crisis.

The fact that this isn't widespread knowledge and that people are still denying it is the most shocking fact. We could start by admitting that we are heading for a global dystopian corporatocracy and then say offer the solution of a sustainable resource-based economy that is ecologically sound and based around decentralised power. Essentially taking advantage of modern technology, like the ability to gain a consensus of the population in minutes on any given topic and therefore removing the middlemen who usurp power for their corporate causes via lobbying corrupt politicians.

I’m almost totally in favor of the 1A, but anyone who utters “climate crisis” should be imprisoned for life.
