COP (or ‘Conference of Parties’) is a yearly conference that brings together all countries which are party to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change. The 26th meeting is due to go ahead in Glasgow from 1 – 12 November.

COP26 is a crucial opportunity to assess, reaffirm and strengthen existing commitments made by the international community to decarbonise. Specifically, it will be a chance to review commitments made under the Paris Climate Agreement in 2015.
