Quakers highlight vision for climate talks

'UK is pushing a net-zero target of 2050. This target "only gives us fifty percent chance of remaining within 1.5 per cent of warming".'

Quaker Peace & Social Witness (QPSW) has released a video based on a climate workshop it held this summer. The presentation on YouTube outlines the importance of the COP26 climate talks in November and how Quaker activism and lobbying can help. According to the presentation, the talks since 2016 have focused on the details of how to implement the 2015 Paris Agreement to limit global warming to well below two, preferably to 1.5 degrees Celsius.
