SUMMARY:Unfolding Climate Crisis:  Reimagining the Role of Global South  beyond Glasgow (COP26)
DESCRIPTION:BACKGROUNDCOP 26 is taking place this year in Glasgow in November, and intends to lay a roadmap on Paris Climate Agreement besides India holding G20 presidency in 2022, among many other plans afoot regionally and globally. Global climate plans up to 2050 are also being put in place.\nWith the latest IPCC report, 2021, unequivocally placing the climate crisis as a ‘Red Code’ for humanity, the clarion call is since out, and will be debated more widely in Glasgow during COP 26 conference on measures to combat global climate crisis through collective action and global partnerships, with a definitive role for global South, if the success on rallying around the climate crisis and a strong push back were to succeed and fructify, in a substantial manner. Climate change has some serious consequences both for Asia and Africa (all over the world) with common threads running through their collective action.
