With the 28th round of climate change negotiations looming, we outline some of the main discussion points and consider what progress could be made.

Representatives from more than 200 governments will gather in the shadow of the Burj Khalifa from the 30th November for the 28th
round of global climate change negotiations. COP28 has been buffeted by
controversy since the UAE was announced as host, with concerns that the
country’s fossil fuel interests would jeopardise the meagre progress
made since the Paris Agreement. Negotiations will also take place
against a backdrop of fraying global consensus, with the continued
fallout from Israel-Palestine, Russia-Ukraine and high inflation likely
to stymie progress. While expectations for the talks are low, the need for progress
to mitigate the most severe impacts of climate change is more apparent
than ever. Over the last year we have witnessed exacerbating climate
impacts globally, including extreme heat across China, India, and
Europe, wildfires in Greece, Hawaii and Canada, droughts in the
Mediterranean, as well as extreme rainfall and floods in the US, Libya,
and India. It is virtually certain that 2023 will be the warmest year on
record, with NASA already declaring summer 2023 as the hottest
recorded. Here we explore some of the main questions ahead of the negotiations, and outline where we think progress may be made.
