United Nations, United States - A summit for non-national authorities will take place during crunch UN climate talks in the
A summit for non-national authorities will take place during crunch UN climate talks in the United Arab Emirates, officials said Tuesday, in recognition of the role of cities and local governments in averting ecological disaster.
“Cities are where the climate battle will largely be won or lost,” said United Nations chief Antonio Guterres in a statement. But, according to a report by the C40 coalition of cities, a network of nearly 100 mayors, “three-quarters of C40 cities have outpaced their respective nation-states in per-capita emission reduction, illustrating the clout of city-led policies and initiatives.”
Local leaders first convened informally on the sidelines of COP21 in 2015, where the Paris Agreement was adopted.
