The COP31, taking place in Antalya, Turkey until November 20, is focusing on the implementation of climate commitments, despite low expectations. The UK has appointed Madeleine Alessandri as the first special representative for climate security. Discussions revolve around reducing greenhouse gas emissions, financing adaptation for the most vulnerable countries, and electrifying energy consumption. The most vulnerable countries, such as those in the Pacific, are demanding concrete actions and funding to keep the warming threshold below 1.5°C, threatening to take legal action in the absence of progress.
