Briefings
The European Union is preparing to request all countries, especially major polluters, to make maximum efforts to prevent exceeding the 1.5°C global warming target at COP31 in Antalya, Turkey. The EU acknowledges that exceeding this limit is probable due to rising emissions and urges a return to a 1.5°C compatible trajectory while minimizing the duration and magnitude of the overshoot. The EU also demands a significant revision of the Paris Agreement implementation, specifically accelerating the phase-out of fossil fuels and improving climate finance, with Ireland's Darragh O'Brien and Portugal's Lúdia Pereira leading the negotiation efforts.
Key points
- The EU will request all countries to make maximum efforts to prevent exceeding the 1.5°C global warming target at COP31 in Antalya, Turkey.
- The EU acknowledges that exceeding this limit is probable due to rising emissions and urges a return to a 1.5°C compatible trajectory while minimizing the duration and magnitude of the overshoot.
Context
COP31 begins in Antalya, Turkey, from November 7-20, 2026, where the EU will formally request all nations to address the 1.5°C warming goal. The EU recognizes that exceeding this limit is probable due to rising emissions and urges a return to a 1.5°C compatible trajectory while minimizing the duration and magnitude of the overshoot. The EU also demands a significant revision of the Paris Agreement implementation, specifically accelerating the phase-out of fossil fuels and improving climate finance, with Ireland's Darragh O'Brien and Portugal's Lúdia Pereira leading the negotiation efforts.
Limitations
Evidence covers only the EU's specific requests at COP31 in Antalya, Turkey, from November 7-20, 2026. It does not include data on actual global emissions trends, historical Paris Agreement implementation rates, or the specific financial mechanisms currently available for climate action.
