Glasgow: COP26 President Alok Sharma said there were still various businesses unfinished at the UN climate summit which was not completed on Thursday when scientists urged negotiators to pay attention to their warning for urgent heating purposes.
Representatives from nearly 200 countries have gathered at Glasgow for tiring talks aimed at guarding the world in the objectives of the Paris Agreement to limit temperature increases to between 1.5 and 2 degrees Celsius.
But with emissions still increasing and promises currently put the world on the way to heat up far beyond the target, negotiators fight over various problems – began to cut greenhouse gases into financial assistance for countries that have faced supercharged storms, floods and drought .
“We haven’t yet been up.” The world is watching us and they are willing to work together and reach consensus.
And we know that we are unable to disappoint them.
“His comments came after the Chinese-US joint agreement to accelerate the climate of this decade, which experts said they had to eliminate fears that tensions were seen at the beginning of the Summit probably thwarting talks.
Surprise declaration, launched by John’s envoy Kerry and Xie Zhenhua, said the two largest emitors in the world “recognize the seriousness and urgency of the climate crisis”, even though it is mild in detailed action.
The important thing is, the document emphasizes the need for carbon pollution to fall this decade and commit to working quickly to reduce methane emissions They – strong greenhouse gases.
“It can only be good news that the US and China work together with climate change and cut methane emissions,” Bernice Lee, Director of Research at Tank Thinking House Chatham.
“But the statement was not enough to close deal.
The real Washington and Beijing test is how hard they push the 1.5C agreement that is in harmony here in Glasgow.
“‘Ireversibly’ has an impact on the Paris 2015 agreement to see the nations promise to limit heating to” far below “two degrees Celsius and to work towards The 1.5c limit is safer through emissions Extreme weather, lower communities throughout the world to fire and drought, more intense displacement, and severe economic difficulties.
And the United Nations said that even the most up-to-date national loans regulate the earth on the path to warm up 2.7C this century.
In order not to exceed the 1.5 limit.
C Target Panel Intergovernmental about Climate Change said emissions must go down 45 press This decade.
More than 200 scientists sent an open letter to the COP26 summit on Thursday urging the countries to take “direct, strong, fast, sustainable and large-scale” actions to stop global warming.
“Cumulative greenhouse gas emissions have so far been doing our planet to change the key to the climate system that affects the human and sea ecosystems and land, some of which cannot be changed for future generations,” said the letter.
The climate ‘beyond other problems’ Wednesday sees the release of the draft “decision”, which is a real real indication where countries are 10 days into deep technical discussions.
Text, which will definitely change during the ministerial debate, which calls for nations to “revisite and strengthen” their new climate plan, known as the nationally determined contribution (NDC) next year, not the previous 2025 agreed upon.
The problems that remain have not been resolved in COP26 include how vulnerable to financially supported countries to verge their economy and prepare for future shocks.
Rules for transparency, general reporting of climate action and carbon markets are still in discussions.
And the nations have been exposed to a climate disaster demanding the support of “losses and damage” from the rich emitter.
But the main sticky point is ambition: who plans to cut their carbon emissions is fast enough to prevent harmful heating.
European Commission Vice President Frans Timmermans said that the US-Chinese pact would have a “positive influence” in discussions in Glasgow.
“With all the difficulties they have on other problems, now it actually signifies this problem beyond other problems …
which helps the global community make peace with the fact that we must act now,” he told AFP.
