Rejected petition Make a stronger climate deal by the end of COP 27, Egypt
The task of the COP 26 climate change conference in Glasgow is not complete. In the face of a climate change emergency the deal was a small step, when we urgently need to take a giant leap forward. We must plan, negotiate, and agree on a much stronger global climate deal by the end of COP 27, Egypt.
More details
In COP26 we agreed emissions cuts that, if fully adhered to, will limit global warming to around 2.4C, nowhere near the 1.5C target agreed by scientists and politicians. Please take a moment to watch Alok Sharma, the president of the COP26 summit, summarize what was achieved at the conference: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-59277788
We must set serious targets for the next decade, not far in the future. And we must eradicate coal as a power source, not merely "phase it down".
