Azerbaijan Collaborates on “Bel©m Mission to 1.5°C” Report for COP31

Antalya:Azerbaijan, along with Brazil, T¼rkiye, and Australia, has jointly prepared the "Bel©m Mission to 1.5°C" report, which has been presented to the public at COP31, currently taking place in Antalya, T¼rkiye.

According to Trend News Agency, the report's primary goal is to assist countries in fulfilling their climate commitments and national adaptation plans under the Paris Agreement, targeting a limitation of global temperature rise to 1.5°C.

The document was developed through collaboration between the involved countries under the mandate assigned to the COP29, COP30, and COP31 Presidencies during COP30, which was held in Brazil the previous year. Throughout 2026, extensive consultations were conducted with nations, international organizations, the private sector, and other stakeholders in the preparation of the report. These consultations occurred globally, including in Azerbaijan. Additionally, 148 written submissions from various countries and organizations were reviewed.

The report highlights existing solutions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, enhance resilience to climate change impacts, and create economic opportunities in sectors such as energy, industry, agriculture, forestry, oceans, healthcare, and urban planning.

The official report presentation is scheduled for November 16 at a high-level event at COP31 in Antalya.
