Negotiators Wrangle Over Fossil Fuels As COP27 Nears End Africa
Government ministers and negotiators from over 200 countries are scrambling to reach an agreement on a range of issues crucial to addressing the climate emergency as negotiations at the COP27 climate summit enter their last stages. On, November 17, the UN climate agency released a 20-page preliminary version of the potential final deal.
It is very likely that it will be revised in the coming days as climate envoys attempt to establish a comprehensive agreement before the deadline. The so-called"non-paper" reiterates many of the Glasgow Climate Pact's objectives, such as pursuing attempts to keep the increase in global temperature to 1.5 degrees Celsius and advocating for continued efforts to phase out coal power unabatedly.
