Well COP26 happened. There were a couple of little steps forward but there is still a long way to go. There is a good report on the talks in the Carbon Brief here.
There is a lot to digest. The UK global leadership didn’t shine, which is sad. There were too many fossil fuel lobbyists (as ever). And we are still haven’t got a commitment to stabilise emissions at 2°C … commitments currently give us an estimated 2.7°C world (assuming they are honoured). It means we need to be definitely focused on adaptation and resilience, in this country as as much as any other in the world.
A busy week
It is great to have a climate change focus for me this week….
