The recent United Nations Climate Change Conference in Scotland, also known as COP26, produced the Glasgow Climate Pact, which, among other goals, seeks to achieve the 1.5-degree Celsius limit set under the 2015 Paris Agreement.
The Glasgow Climate Pact is significant as it sets the global climate agenda for the next decade. It also intersects with the global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of which climate action is a major pillar. SDG 13, for instance, directly addresses climate change and its impacts. Related to this is climate change mitigation, for example, reduction of greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs).
