In this episode, join Donal Quinn and Erin Maher as they unpack the significance of the upcoming COP 29 conference and its role in advancing global climate goals.
They explore the structure, purpose, and history of the Conference of the Parties (COP) with a focus on how past achievements and challenges shape future efforts. Held this year in Baku, Azerbaijan—a location raising discussions due to its reliance on oil—COP29 will address key themes such as climate finance, agriculture, and climate adaptation.
Erin and Donal discuss essential topics like the Paris Agreement’s 1.5-degree Celsius target, the establishment of the loss and damages fund for vulnerable regions, and the need for more ambitious, actionable climate goals.
This episode delves into the critical role of society and NGOs in influencing climate negotiations and ensuring that agreements translate to real action. Erin and Donal emphasise the need for operational climate funds and transparent, collaborative efforts that extend beyond COP itself. Whether you’re a sustainability professional, climate activist, or someone passionate about the environment, this episode offers insights into COP 29 and what’s necessary to accelerate global climate solutions.
