This COP has been like none other.

We have seen that alongside the core negotiations, public-private co-operation has delivered great progress.

But more must be done and @wbcsd will champion for the introduction of Corporate Determined Contributions at #COP27.

[Claire O’Neill @ClaireClimate]

Really enjoyed this fascinating discussion @PastCoal yesterday on #EnergyDay @COP26 on the COP Presidency main stage

Businesses are already taking leadership to advance action on #coal phase-out across the world, including through coal-free supply chains.

[Environment Canada @environmentca]

#TBT: In November 2017, Canada and the UK launched the global Powering @PastCoal Alliance to phase out #Coal electricity. Today there are over 160 members committed to the transition towards #CleanEnergy.

The path to 2023 ⁦@UNFCCC⁩ Global Stocktake connects ⁦@COP26⁩ focus on action, to Egypt next year with focus on resilience. The Corporate Determined Contributions called for in ⁦@wbcsd⁩ Climate Manifesto will help show delivery. https://t.co/ndJXIC0N3a

BIG NEWS 🚨 #COP26 climate pledges mean Glasgow is getting closer to Paris!

New @IEA analysis shows that fully achieving all net zero pledges to date & the Global Methane Pledge by those who signed it would limit global warming to 1.8 C

A big step forward, but much more needed!

[Powering Past Coal Alliance (PPCA) @PastCoal]

.@ClaireClimate helped get the PPCA off the ground in 2017. Today, as Managing Dir. for Climate & Energy of @wbcsd she explains how businesses can advance action on #coal phase-out across the world, including through coal-free supply chains.

Fantastic work @COP26 to deliver a financial deal to help South Africa make the coal transition.

These bespoke plans were at the heart of the original #COP26 action and I am so pleased to see them come to life in #Glasgow

Another big milestone as we strive to #MakeCoalHistory!
