Which country will host the 26th UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP 26) ?
Explanation
The 26th UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP 26) was hosted by the United Kingdom in partnership with Italy. The summit took place in Glasgow, Scotland, from October 31 to November 13, 2021. It was originally scheduled for 2020 but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The conference concluded with the Glasgow Climate Pact, which aimed to keep the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5°C alive and marked the first time a UN climate deal explicitly planned to reduce the use of coal. While France hosted the historic COP 21 (Paris Agreement) and Germany often hosts sessions in Bonn (the seat of the UNFCCC secretariat), the UK was the designated host for the 26th session.
