Copy LinkSeven months after the Conference of Parties to the Paris Agreement concluded its meeting in Abu Dhabi with significant agreements to begin a “just and orderly” transition away from fossil fuels, triple renewable energy use, and increase energy efficiency, the world is facing rising emissions.
