At Monday’s meeting, CARICOM Heads sought to solidify the Community’s positions that will be adopted at COP26.

Ahead of the October 31 – November 12 meeting, leaders were advised that the world will meet its target to limit climate change to 1.5 degrees Celsius. However, COP26 represents a politically significant moment for accelerating COP ambition of reaching its target of 1.5 degrees Celsius and to fulfill the Paris Agreement.

The meeting is also expected to discuss issues relating to accelerating the green recovery, closing the financial gap of the 2020 commitment to deliver US$100 billion in climate finance per annum; ensuring solidarity for adaptation and loss and damage, as well as completing the Paris Rulebook and moving it towards implementation.

The negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on advancing the climate agenda will also be discussed at COP26.
