Today, the COP26 President-Designate Alok Sharma will continue to bring together ministers and representatives from more than 50 to lay the groundwork for success ahead of November’s COP26 negotiations as we work to build a greener future for future generations.
• Alongside our national efforts in tackling climate change, we must show global leadership by working with our international partners to ensure that definitive action is taken to drive down emissions and protect our planet.
• That is why Alok Sharma is bringing together representatives from over 50 countries for two-days of informal, closed-door meetings to encourage frank conversations about the issues in fighting climate change – the first such meeting for more than 18 months.
• By engaging with difficult issues, representatives will be able to build common ground and find a unity of purpose ahead of November’s COP26 conference, ensuring we remain on track to reduce carbon emissions before it is too late and work together to develop green jobs – building a greener, brighter future for our children and future generations.
