Overview
“COP 26” is a major United Nations climate change summit taking place in Glasgow from 1-12 November 2021 under the presidency of the UK government. Named the “26th session of the Conference of the Parties” – shortened to COP 26 – the conference is an important place for countries to come together to discuss how climate change will be tackled and to agree global and national targets.
