What the COP is going on?

Online event on Nov 7 from 6:30pm to 7:30pm GMT

Overview

What’s in it? Want to hear about the history and importance of COP, and the key policies and agreements COP have established to help tackle climate change?

What’s the back story? 2025 marks the 30th year that the UNFCC Conference of the Parties (COP) is taking place. This year, COP 30 is being hosted by Belem in Brazil. COP 30 is already quite controversial due to the construction of a four-lane highway that goes directly through the Amazon Rainforest.

Tell me more! This online event aims to help translate for you what is happening at COP – from explaining the science of climate change (a summary from the IPCC report) to the history and importance of policy agreements, such as the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement.
