Description | Global climate change conference. The CCM highlight of 2022. |
COP27 is the 27th session of the Conference of the Parties to the UNFCCC and will take place in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt from 7-18 November 2022.
COP27 was originally expected to take place from 8-20 November 2021. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, COP26 was rescheduled from November 2020 to November 2021. As a result, COP27 will take place from 7-18 November 2022.[1]
UK cop out
On Friday afternoon 28 October 2022, The Guardian reported:
King Charles will not attend the COP27 summit, Downing Street has said, as it is not the “right occasion” for him to do so. The former Prime Minister Liz Truss had asked the king not to attend the summit, and her successor, Rishi Sunak, has left it in place, No 10 confirmed.
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak had already decided not to attend COP27.[2]
Remote control
The Telegraph reported that King Charles will find a way to support COP27 'from afar' after the Government ruled out his attending in person.[3]
Screeching U-turn
On 2 November 2022, Number 10 announced:
The Prime Minister has reversed an earlier decision not to go to the COP27 climate summit in Egypt.
No 10 had said Rishi Sunak was too busy preparing for the 17 November budget to attend the event which opens on Sunday.
But this had been widely criticised by climate campaigners, opposition parties and climate adviser Alok Sharma.
Mr Sunak said there was "no long-term prosperity without action on climate change" or energy security without investment in renewables:
- "That's why I will attend COP27 next week - to deliver on Glasgow's legacy of building a secure, clean and sustainable future," he told MPs during Prime Minister's Questions.
On Tuesday, former prime minister Boris Johnson said he would attend COP27 in Sharm El Sheikh.[4]
