Developed countries reaffirmed in the last days of COP26 (26th United Nations Conference on Climate Change) their commitment to allocate US$ 100 billion a year to projects that help to contain global warming in developing nations. The delegations present at the meeting also reached an agreement on the main points regarding the carbon market regulation.
The final stage of COP26 was also marked by the announcement that the United States and China are committed to adopting actions to contain global warming by a maximum of 1.5°C, reduce methane emissions, preserve forests and gradually abandon coal. And the conference also had a commitment from more than a thousand companies, including 30 from Brazil, to adopt concrete actions based on science to also not allow warming above 1.5°C by the end of this century.
In this episode of CNN World, Lourival Sant’Anna presents a balance of information and analysis on the main climate agreements signed by the countries present at the UN Conference.
