Between November 30 and December 11, 2015, international negotiators will meet at the Conference of Parties (COP) 21 in Paris. The annual COP is the main decision making session of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). This particular meeting is historic: in the context of increasingly strong and urgent calls to tackle anthropogenic climate change, the participants will seek to agree on a new agreement applicable to all Parties.
The four papers attached are intended to provide a comprehensive briefing for those concerned about the outcomes of COP21. The subjects are covered as follows:
Paper 1: The UNFCCC Conference of Parties (COP21) in Paris 2015.
Paper 2: The importance of grassroots action to influence international climate negotiations.
Paper 3: Questions to ask policy makers.
Paper 4: What can we say, briefly, about the findings from climate science?
