Every year, the United Nations brings together representatives from across the globe to address the climate crisis. Member states’ negotiators assess the latest information and science about the climate crisis and craft global goals aimed at slowing climate change and mitigating the worst of its impacts. While a record number of stakeholders converged on Dubai for COP28—including policymakers, activists, scientists, industry leaders, and journalists—determining the success of the deliberations will take months, or even years. At this month’s Climate Conversation, our panelists will discuss what the conference outcomes actually mean, how countries will embrace the final agreements, and what climate actions we should expect.
The webinar will be webcast on the Climate Conversations: COP28 webpage on Thursday, January 18, 2024 from 3:00 to 4:15pm ET. Closed captioning will be provided. The conversation will include questions from the audience and will be recorded and available to view on the page after the event.
