On November 28 through December 13, 2023, Dubai (United Arab Emirates) fostered an annual Conference of the Parties (COP) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Amidst the hottest year on the observation record, this year, the COP28 was marked as a major event in terms of active involvement of civil society and hot debates on previously unresolved issues, such as adaptation policies, so-called Loss and Damage Funds for developing countries suffering from the consequences and disasters of the rapidly changing climate. The discussions lasted longer than expected, and the final conference statement was released only on December 13, after a long night of debates between the delegates. It was nicknamed “the beginning of the end” of the fossil-fuel era, although some activists remain unsatisfied with vague expressions to react to a climate emergency. We recommend reading the full paper released by the UNFCCC[1] for more information.
