The climate talks will be the biggest international summit the UK has ever hosted; bringing together over 30,000 delegates including heads of state, climate experts and campaigners to agree coordinated action to tackle climate change.
The challenge is not insignificant, but we must step up to it to save the environment we all live in. The UN Climate Change process is central to that collective action.
COP26 has been postponed due to COVID-19. This decision has been taken jointly by the COP Bureau of the UNFCCC. We will set out revised plans for a rescheduled conference in due course.
