LONDON: British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has praised the deal attacking at the end of the COP26 climate summit in Glasgow as a “big advanced step” and the first international agreement for “down phase” using coal.
Praise the hard work of COP26 Alok Sharma – The British Indian cabinet minister who was in charge of navigating negotiations – Johnson expressed hope that the two-week summit who went to extra time during the weekend would mark “the beginning of the end of climate change”.
His statement follows an agreement between nearly 200 countries in the last communique on Saturday, which recognizes Indian intervention for the world for “down phase” rather than fossil fuels “phase out”.
“There is still a lot to do in the coming years.
But today’s agreement is a big step forward and, critically, we have the first international agreement to remove coal and roadmaps to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees [Celsius] , “Johnson said.
“I hope that we will look back in COP26 in Glasgow as the beginning of the end of climate change, and I will continue to work tirelessly towards that goal,” he said.
According to the analysis of the impact of the agreement, the purpose of the Central Summit from limiting global warming up to 1.5C has been stored in the range – the countries provided continue to take ambitious action over the next decade.
During the last two weeks, tens of thousands of people from 197 countries gathered in Scotland for talks that peaked in ‘Glasgow’s climate pact’.
This conducts countries to reduce the use of coal which has not taken place, support a fair transition for developing countries and actions to overcome losses and damage, and approve a general period and methodology for national commitment to reducing emissions.
India, represented by the Minister of Environment, Forest and Climate Change Bhupender Yadav, made an important intervention to insist on justice and balance in the final communike.
“Developing countries have the right to their fair shares of the global carbon budget and are entitled to the use of fossil fuels responsible for this scope.
In such situations, how can anyone expect that developing countries can make an appointment about tracing Coal fuel subsidies and fossils (when) developing countries still have to deal with the development agenda and eradication of their poverty, “asked Yadav.
China also has the same view.
The subject of fossil fuels, has an impact on the final words of the pact to reflect the efforts of “phases down” the use of coal that is not efficiently inefficient fossil fuel subsidies, while providing targeted support to the poorest and most vulnerable to national conditions.
“On the problem of coal, for the first time at this conference, the word coal is actually reflected in the text; it’s the first.
Yes, of course, I want to make sure we maintain ‘phase out’ instead of changing words to the bottom phase, but inside Travel to get out, you have to go down, “Alok Sharma said ‘on Sunday.
“In the end, we need to ensure that we continue to work on this agreement and commitment.
And, in coal issues, China and India must justify some of the most vulnerable climate countries what happened.
You heard disappointment on the floor,” he said, insisting overall marking “Historic agreement” that deserves to be proud of.
Countries are now asked to return next year with a more ambitious 2030 emission reduction target – or called a nationally determined contribution – in line with the 1.5C target.
This will be combined with annual political round tables to consider global progress reports and the peak of the leader in 2023.
The British government said it would continue to encourage greater actions to reduce emissions and support developing countries with new green technology during the following year party presidency conferences ( COP), before Egypt took the coat on November 2022.
The Paris Rulebook, or guidelines on how the Paris Agreement was delivered, was also completed on Saturday after six years of discussion since six years par Paris in 2015.
This includes chapter 6, which establishes a framework For countries to exchange carbon credits through the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).
“We can now say with the credibility that we have maintained 1.5 degrees of life.
But, the pulse is weak and it will only survive if we keep our promises and translate commitment to quickly,” Sharma said, as soon as he hit the hammer he to announce the Glasgow climate pact.
