COP26 will take place in the Scottish city of Glasgow, between November 1 and 12, 2021, and not in 2020 as planned. Its postponement was due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This change of date was agreed between the UN and the Governments of the United Kingdom and Italy, which are in charge of its organization.<\/p>\n

The goal as always is focused on the advancement and revision of the Paris Agreement, especially in keeping the temperature goal close to 1.5 \u00b0 C.<\/p>\n

To ensure success, all countries need to commit to net zero emissions as soon as possible and to make significant additional cuts by 2030. Helping societies and economies adapt to climate change, particularly the most vulnerable, is essential. Finally, the opportunity of rapidly falling costs for renewables and energy storage must be seized. More information on the UN page ONU<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
