HR!Day350 - COP26 Humanity Rising Special Coverage: Understanding the COP
- --- Humanity Rising Day 350 - Friday October 29, 2021 (GoTo Bottom)
In 1995, the first Conference of Parties (COP) was convened in Berlin by the UN as the reality of the climate crisis was beginning to dawn on the governments of the world after 40 years of warnings by climate scientists. Since that time, governments, corporations and scientists have met and discussed what should be done to avert climate disaster but have essentially taken little action. In 2015, the COP in Paris achieved a consensus that all governments would lower their carbon emissions but very little has been done. The latest report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) indicates that we are now in “unprecedented territory,” which the UN Secretary General states means “Code Red for Humanity.” The upcoming COP in Glasgow takes place within Code Red.
