"When this year’s United Nations Climate Change Conference begins in late
November 2023, it will be a moment for course correction. Seven years ago,
nearly every country worldwide signed onto the Paris climate agreement. They
agreed to goals of limiting global warming – including key targets to be met by
2030, seven years from now.
A primary aim of this year’s conference, known as COP28, is to evaluate
countries’ progress halfway to the 2030 deadlines.
Reports show that the world isn’t on track. At the same time, energy security
concerns and disputes over how to compensate countries for loss and damage from
climate change are making agreements on cutting emissions tougher to reach.
But as energy and environmental policy researchers, we also see signs of
progress."
