" """ What are the key issues under discussion?

Since 2015, under the legally-binding Paris Agreement treaty, almost all countries in the world have committed to:

  • Keep the rise in global average temperature to ‘well below’ 2°C, and ideally 1.5°C, above pre-industrial levels.
  • Strengthen the ability to adapt to climate change and build resilience.
  • Align finance flows with ‘a pathway towards low greenhouse gas emissions and climate-resilient development’.

The Paris Agreement has a ‘bottom-up’ approach where individual countries decide what action they will take.

" """

And this means that something very important to the climate change issue/environmental sustainability is missing since 2015 Paris agreement; and actually missing since 2012 Rio +20 decision of green market paradigm shift avoidance, and something which it is still missing in COP27.

Which raises the question, what is the COP process NOT about, including COP27?

Any ideas of something very important missing that the IPCC seems to leave out all the time when calling for action?

What do you think?
