nov 6, 2022 - COP 27

Description:

United Nations (UN) climate summits are held every year, for governments to agree steps to limit global temperature rises.

The world is warming because of emissions produced by humans, mostly from burning fossil fuels like oil, gas and coal.

To prevent this, 194 countries signed the Paris Agreement in 2015, pledging to "pursue efforts" to limit global temperature rises to 1.5C.
