- Politics
In episode 99, we dive into the urgent topic of climate change and the upcoming COP28 summit, an essential meeting that will significantly influence global environmental policies. We start by discussing why climate change talks are important and what makes the COP meetings, especially COP28, so crucial in addressing these issues.
We then look back at the last COP meeting, COP27, to understand what was achieved and what wasn't, and what needs more work. Next, we talk about what we expect from COP28. We'll focus on important areas like the updates countries need to make to their climate plans (Nationally Determined Contributions) and how funding for climate change initiatives is a key part of these discussions. We also talk about what roles big countries, the host nation, and groups of countries might play at COP28.
Moving forward, we explore how the decisions from COP28 might change climate policies worldwide, especially how they affect poorer countries and the progress of the Paris Agreement. We'll discuss how vital it is for these countries to be involved in meeting COP28's goals and how public opinion and action are necessary for moving the climate agenda forward.
Finally, we will have a special focus on Canada, examining its approach to COP28, its environmental policies, and what it aims to bring to the summit.
Tune in to this episode to get a clear and detailed understanding of the complex issue of climate change and what to expect from the upcoming COP28 summit.
