UNA-UK has released a major report on implementing the new climate deal agreed by UN member states in Paris last year.
Released ahead of the appointment of a new Secretary-General, Climate 2020 - Rising to the challenge builds on our 2015 report, which made recommendations ahead of the climate agreement's adoption.
Climate 2020 provides insights and suggestions for taking forward the Paris agreement, with contributions from UN, government, science, business and civil society experts. Together, the articles provide a source of practical actions, approaches, analysis and case studies on how the hard-won deal can become the climate framework we need - namely one that is robust, equitable and able to deliver long-term benefits to all.
