Baku/01.11.21/Turan: At the UN Conference on Climate Change (COP26) held in Glasgow, Azerbaijan is represented by a delegation headed by the Minister of Ecology and Natural Resources Mukhtar Babayev.
At the two-week forum, representatives of the world's elites are discussing how to accelerate the implementation of the Paris Agreement and switch to green energy.
The climate agreement was adopted in December 2015 at the 21st Conference of the States Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. It defines the standards for greenhouse gas emissions after 2020 and measures to prevent climate change. The agreement is intended to pave the way for a sustainable future. It promises to keep the global temperature rise at 1.5 degrees Celsius.
