With blood red ribbons that represent the red lines that have already crossed in the COP26 negotiations, hundreds of representatives of world civil society, such as protest, left the Glasgow Convention Center, in Scotland, the last morning of the top.
El texto final debería constituir la base de un acuerdo que todos los países tienen previsto firmar al final de la COP26 (aunque no será jurídicamente vinculante). Su importancia es vital, pues establecerá la agenda global del cambio climático para la próxima década.It is likely that the details change from here to the final agreement as negotiations advance.
The agreement softens the language on the elimination of coal and fossil fuels, but reinforces the call to countries to harden their climatic objectives.This point has locked negotiations. Asimismo, pide a las naciones desarrolladas que proporcionen al menos el doble de la cantidad de financiación para la adaptación de los países en desarrollo, que ya sufren los efectos del cambio climático.

The new text project "asks" governments that emit new climatic plans by 2030 before the end of 2022 with the aim of closing this gap.This is a change (although quite subtle) with respect to the previous text project, which used the verb "Insta".
The new document specifies that the accelerated elimination of fossil fuel subsidies applies only to "inefficient", while faster coal elimination only applies to "non -reduced" projects, which are not capturing and storingCarbon dioxide emissions from the use of coal.
