BRUSSELS (Reuters) – Governments should raise their climate targets within the next two months, the United Arab Emirates’ president of the upcoming COP28 global climate conference said on Thursday.
“I call on all governments to update their NDCs by September of this year, ensuring alignment with the Paris Agreement,” Sultan Ahmed al-Jaber said, referring to “Nationally Determined Contributions”, the emissions-cutting pledges that serve as countries’ national contributions to meeting the 2015 Paris Agreement’s goals to curb climate change.
