| Now that the goals of the Paris Agreement have been set, the Glasgow climate talks should be about creating a more detailed roadmap of how to achieve them. Some important considerations will include how to agree on more effective near-term emission reductions. For example, transitioning away from fossil fuels, improving the use of energy, limiting deforestation, and converting net-zero pledges into action. | | Now that the goals of the Paris Agreement have been set, the Glasgow climate talks should be about creating a more detailed roadmap of how to achieve them.
