This year’s United Nation´s (UN) climate conference, COP23, concluded on 18 November with steps forward to ensure global climate action through implementation of the Paris Agreement. Clarity on the design of the so called ‘Talanoa Dialogue’ (Facilitative Dialogue) has been achieved looking at how global climate action can be accelerated in the years to come. The Facilitative Dialogue next year will be the opportunity for political stock-taking for the parties on progress made on the implementation of the Paris Agreement. EuCheMS was present at COP23 with a EU Pavilion side event entitled “Future-Oriented Chemistry”, where Ulrich Schubert presented the EuCheMS white paper Solar-Driven Chemistry. The next UN climate conference (COP24) will take place in Katowice, Poland, in December 2018.
