The decisions made at COP29 <em>will<\/em> determine the future of our planet. It&#8217;s a pivotal global event and one of the key platforms that brings together world leaders, climate experts, activists, NGOs, and various other stakeholders to discuss and negotiate actions to combat climate change.<\/p>\n<p>Held annually, COPs are critical for advancing international efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, adapt to the impacts of climate change, and mobilize financial and technological support for sustainable development. \u00a0For example, COP21 in Paris was where the historic Paris Agreement was adopted, setting ambitious targets for reducing global emissions.<\/p>\n<p>This year, COP29 is focused on critical issues such as climate finance, sustainable development, environmental justice, and the transition to renewable energy. This conference plays a crucial role in shaping global climate policies and fostering collaboration among nations to achieve the goals set out in the Paris Agreement.<\/p>\n<p>As UN Secretary-General Ant\u00f3nio Guterres stated, \u201cThe climate emergency is a race we are losing, but it is a race we can win.\u201d We look forward to seeing how COP29 progresses, and what new commitments, agreements, and initiatives governments take to tackle climate change.<\/p>\n<p>Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/90509399\">EERL&#8217;s LinkedIn page<\/a> to stay tuned for updates from COP29, and more!<\/p>\n<p>~~~<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-2310 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/eerl\/wp-content\/uploads\/Capture-CBC-Ottawa-Morning.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"72\" height=\"74\" srcset=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/eerl\/wp-content\/uploads\/Capture-CBC-Ottawa-Morning.png 201w, https:\/\/carleton.ca\/eerl\/wp-content\/uploads\/Capture-CBC-Ottawa-Morning-160x164.png 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 72px) 100vw, 72px\" \/>Listen to CBC Ottawa Morning for early COP29 takeaways:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbc.ca\/listen\/live-radio\/1-100-ottawa-morning\/clip\/16108788-an-ottawan-cop29-azerbaijan\">An Ottawan at COP29 in Azerbaijan | Ottawa Morning | Live Radio | CBC Listen<\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This year&#8217;s United Nation&#8217;s COP29 is held in Baku, Azerbaijan, and we are thrilled to announce that our Scientific Director, Matthew Johnson, is representing the Energy and Emissions Research Lab (EERL) and Canada at this global event.
