The 22nd Conference of Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP22) will kick off on Monday at Marrakech, Morocco. The climate change conference that will run until 18th of November comes shortly after the coming to effect of the Paris Agreement (on November, 4th) that was brokered during the 21st COP held last year in Paris, France.
In Paris, nations came up with an ambitious plan to cut greenhouse gas emissions, prevent global temperature increase, enhance adaptation to the impacts of climate change and commit climate finance to assist poor and vulnerable countries with mitigation and adaptation measures.
