 COP28 UAE Unveils Global Commitment

 


In Dubai, United Arab Emirates, a major oil-producing country, the 28th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations on Climate Change (COP28) has officially begun. World leaders come together for this important meeting, which runs from November 30 to December 12, to discuss the urgent problem of climate change. Follow us with live coverage of COP28 as world leaders negotiate conversations about sustainability and climate action.

With its declaration of its COP28 North Star—holding countries and stakeholders accountable for sustaining the goal temperature of 1.5ºC—the United Arab Emirates takes center stage as the meeting progresses. To begin this quest, the world community gathers at Expo City Dubai. About 180 heads of state, 97,000 delegates, specialists, observers, and climate activists take part in the gathering. The ceremonial opening of the climate talks by Sultan Al Jaber sets the stage for talks about renewable energy, fossil fuels, and net-zero targets.

US climate envoy John Kerry expressed optimism for significant progress in addressing climate change as the conference picks up steam. Kerry is in line with the global movement for carbon-free energy options in his focus on developing nuclear fusion power. Vice-President Kamala Harris interrupts the talks to declare her attendance and underline the US commitment to taking global climate action. Remarkably, voices of support for Palestine resound throughout COP28, highlighting the connection between climate justice and human rights, as emphasized by COP28 Coalition coordinator Lidy Nacpil and activist Dylan Hamilton.
