Outrage + Optimism: The Climate Podcast 126. COP26! All Eyes on 1.5
The World Leaders Summit at COP26 has happened...So what happened, exactly?
A LOT.
This week, we cover it all in a laid-back-waiting-for-takeaway-to-arrive style conversation with our hosts.
We’ll cover updated pledges and commitments on:
- An End to Deforestation by 2030
- Methane reductions
- India’s Net Zero 2070 target
We also get into inclusion and representation of the Global South, and how we went from 50% of global emissions covered by a Net Zero target at the beginning of this year, to yesterday it being 89%.
So sit back, relax, and dig in!
