However, the agreements reached at COP26 are not sufficient to approach this goal.

included in the first draft of the agreement Call for “Acceleration of Carbon Phases and Fossil Fuel Subsidies” – which is crucial for the temperature rise not to exceed 1.5 degrees Celsius – was due to resistance among other things, weakened Saudi Arabia and China. The second draft, published Friday morning, talks about the gradual withdrawal of “persistence” of coal energy and “ineffective” subsidies for fossil fuels.

In addition, China and Saudi Arabia oppose proposals for all countries to submit more ambitious national emissions reduction plans for the period up to 2030 by the end of next year.
