On Thursday night, a decision was taken by the body in Glasgow to accept the Emirates’ bid to host the talks. This means that the UAE will host the 28th United Nations Global Climate Conference in 2023.
The abbreviation COP means ‘Conference of the Parties’. This conference basically means that the United Nations is bringing together almost all the countries on earth to attend global climate summits called COPs. The meeting will begin on November 6, 2023, in the UAE. “There being no objections, it is decided,” declared Cop26 president Alok Sharma.
“We congratulate the Emirates for winning the bid to host the most important conference for climate Cop28, for 2023 … a deserved win for our country … we will put all our capabilities for the conference to succeed … the UAE will remain committed to global climate action to protect our planet Earth,” Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Vice President and Ruler of Dubai said.
Mariam Al Mheiri, Minister of Climate Change and Environment, said that hosting Cop28 was an opportunity to “bring the world together to explore effective solutions to the most pressing challenges our planet faces”.
She said: “We are grateful to the nations that have supported our bid to host the crucial event. As the land of opportunities and collaborations, we look forward to bringing the world together to explore effective solutions to the most pressing challenges our planet faces.”
