Overview

On January 26 and 27, The Global CCS Institute will hold a virtual event to discuss the upcoming Conference of the Parties (COP) 26.

This year, COP will be held in Glasgow, Scotland during November. COP 26 will be a truly critical climate change meeting and one that will deliver a change in international efforts. The Global CCS Institute has attended many COP meetings to provide guidance regarding CCS in an official observer capacity. As we plan our involvement in this conference, we wanted to update our Members on CCS related elements of the meeting and the Institute’s involvement. To that end, we will be holding regional Member meetings whereby the Institute’s Advocacy Team will provide an update on these matters.
