WATCH LIVE: COP31 Opens in Turkey as Geopolitical Tensions Put Climate Action Under Pressure
The 31st United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP31) opens in Antalya, Turkey, bringing together representatives from nearly 200 countries for two weeks of crucial climate negotiations.
The opening session features statements from UN Climate Change Executive Secretary Simon Stiell, COP31 President Murat Kurum and COP31 President of Negotiations Chris Bowen.
This year’s talks begin against a challenging geopolitical backdrop. War-driven energy security concerns, growing electricity demand from artificial intelligence and uncertainty surrounding US engagement are putting fresh pressure on international efforts to tackle global warming.
Can countries find common ground on climate action amid competing economic, energy and security priorities?
