The UAE is preparing to host the Cop28 Climate Summit in Expo City Dubai from November 30 to December 12, 2023.
The COP28 climate conference will be the first global assessment of the progress made in global climate efforts since the historic Paris Agreement in 2015 to curb global warming, according to a report recently published on the World Economic Forum website.
The UAE provided a model to the world in efforts to address climate change and support clean energy projects, by moving quickly from the stage of pledges and framework agreements to entering the implementation stage, which happened on many occasions, most notably the UAE’s accession to the United Nations Convention in 1995, and later to the Kyoto Protocol in 2004, and then by signing the Paris Agreement in 2015, to be the first Arab country to ratify it, in addition to investing $50 billion in renewable energy projects in 70 countries, and many other exceptional projects that support climate action trends and reduce carbon emissions.
Based on the succession of Emirati efforts, the General Secretariat of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change chose the UAE to host the 28th session of the Conference of the Parties "COP28" at the end of this year, to transfer its experience, expertise and strategies in dealing with climate change to the world, and to be a forum for state leaders to intensify global efforts in climate action.
As part of the UAE's preparations for the conference, a road map for the national carbon sequestration project has been prepared, which includes "planting 100 million mangroves by 2030" at the state level to achieve climate neutrality by 2050.
Among the preparations, the UAE Special Envoy for Climate Change, Dr. Sultan Al-Jaber, was assigned as appointed president of "COP28", by virtue of his long experience in this field. The best applications, methods and solutions for the transition to environmental sustainability without reducing countries' need for fuel.
The American Bloomberg News Network pointed out in an article to the importance of the UAE hosting the Cop28 Climate Summit and how its president, Minister Sultan Al Jaber, is the right person in the right place, as he knows very well "how to be an ally and supporter of climate activists, countries and governments in the world that seek to reduce carbon emissions and protect the climate."
The UAE will become the second Arab country to host the climate conference, after the Arab Republic of Egypt, which hosted the 27th session of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change in 2022.
