Briefings

Carbon Brief analyzed 100 documents at COP31 in Antalya, Turkey, revealing a joint presidency where Australia leads while Turkey hosts. Key issues include a contested 'just transition' mechanism agreed at COP30, failed global adaptation goals, and unresolved mitigation work programmes. The interactive table tracks party positions from 'priority' to 'oppose' across topics, with a 'living document' status meaning positions will shift during the summit.

Key points

• Australia leads the joint presidency at COP31 in Antalya while Turkey hosts the conference, marking an unusual arrangement for UN climate negotiations.
• The 'Belém-Antalya mechanism' (JTM) was agreed at COP30 but lacks details and has conflicting views on whether it should be tied to climate finance provision.

Context

COP31 negotiations in Antalya face a backdrop of global war, energy crisis, and climate extremes. The summit's joint presidency creates complex dynamics between Australia and Turkey, with Turkey also pushing its own priorities on electrification and green industrialisation.

Limitations

Analysis covers 100 documents but lacks real-time updates; specific positions remain uncertain as the 'living document' evolves during the summit.
