everything you need to know about cop27

The document provides an overview of COP27, the 27th United Nations conference on climate change, which brings together approximately 200 countries to discuss plans for reducing carbon emissions to limit global temperature rise to 1.5C. It identifies three overarching themes for the conference: emissions reductions, climate finance, and prioritising people through the lens of 'loss and damage'.

• COP27 serves as a platform for approximately 200 countries to present and discuss updated plans to reduce carbon emissions and achieve net-zero by 2050, aiming to uphold the Paris Agreement's goal of limiting global temperature rise to 1.5C.
• There is a significant gap in climate ambition following COP26, with only 23 of nearly 200 countries that signed the Pact submitting increased pledges to 'revisit and strengthen' their 2030 climate plans.
• Developed countries have failed to meet a 2009 pledge to provide $100 billion annually to developing countries for emissions mitigation and climate change adaptation.
• The concept of 'loss and damage'—defined as the current negative impacts of climate change—is emerging as a critical topic at COP27, particularly as 40% of the global population lives on the frontline of the climate crisis.
