Abstract:
Six years after the Paris Agreement, COP26 is the most significant momentum for countries of the world to agree on concrete pathways to reach the 1.5-degrees target. The summit's critical questions encompass enhancing Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), deciding on solid finance packages for developing countries, producing new Public-Private Partnerships(PPPs) for technological breakthroughs, and finalizing the Paris rules book, especially on Article 6. This paper discusses COP 26's achievements on these critical issues. In addition, it further engages the discussion on the implementation of Climate Clubs, as an opportunity for like-minded countries to work together accelerating climate ambition.
