Summary / Abstract (Note) | COPs are the most important multilateral forum from where the directions could be provided to the global effort at arresting the global warming and climate change induced crisis that are arriving in different parts of the world as wake-up calls. Hence, the country heads are required to take time out on priority basis, else the conferences would gradually be rendered meaningless exercise and in vain. COP27 did witnessed something of that sort as the impending G-20 summit in Indonesia during the same period kept many of the leaders belonging to major powers, out of the conference. Hence, the COP27 could be counted low on delivery, owing to absence of powers that matters in the world. However, one must take into account the rising aspirations of the victims of those countries who are increasingly becoming vulnerable on account of global warming and consequent climate change. |
