COP28 Climate Summit: Key Players, Expectations, and Themes

The upcoming COP28 climate change summit in Dubai will address several key issues, including the conclusion of the global stocktake under the Paris Agreement, the establishment of a fund for climate change-induced "loss and damage," and the discussion of energy targets such as phasing out fossil fuels and tripling renewable energy capacity. Other topics on the agenda include the operationalization of the loss-and-damage fund, the adoption of a framework for achieving the global goal on adaptation, and the ongoing work on climate finance and Article 6 carbon markets.
