COP—which stands for Conference of the Parties—is an annual meeting where United Nations member states convene to assess progress in dealing with climate change and make a plan for climate action within the guidelines of the UNFCCC. COP decisions can have global authority: in the UN system, powerful countries like the United States and Russia have the same voting rights as tiny island nations like Vanuatu or São Tomé and Príncipe. In the months leading up to COP28, we will publish articles and host webinars on COP themes, work with our clients to implement net-zero plans and create climate tools and solutions, and convene a vibrant ecosystem of institutions to tackle some of the biggest problems facing our world today
