The world's largest annual climate conference of the parties (COP28) was hosted in Dubai this year. COP28 was attended by negotiators from nearly 200 countries. There was a strong emphasis on cutting emissions and increasing financial support to reach the 1.5°C global temperature limit during the conference. It ended with an agreement that signals the "end of the fossil fuel era," underpinned by deep cuts in emissions and increased financing to support a swift, just, and equitable transition.
