Показать описание
Abstract: The UN Climate Change Conference 2022, Conference of Parties (COP27), convened November 6th to 20th in Egypt. For nearly three decades, the UN has hosted these global climate summits, with the most significant being COP21 held in Paris, France in 2015 where all countries agreed to work together to limit global warming to well below 2 degrees Celsius and aim for 1.5 degrees Celsius, also known as the Paris Agreement. COP27 focused on mitigation and progress toward the Paris Agreement goal, climate adaption and resiliency efforts, adequacy and predictability of climate finance, and advancement of partnership and collaboration across stakeholders. CGSR will host a fireside chat with our distinguished speaker Alice Hill to discuss the main outcomes of COP27, opportunities and challenges going forward, and implications for global climate efforts.
