Chances of success at COP26 are 60%, says Boris Johnson – ISTOÉ MONEY

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson during G20 meeting in Rome

ROME (Reuters) – British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said he estimates the chances of a positive outcome at the UN climate change summit, COP26, to be held in Glasgow, Scotland, at around 60%.

The UK hopes the summit in Glasgow, which begins Oct. 31, will adopt plans for the world to move closer to the goal of limiting average global temperature growth to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels and reaching a zero balance in carbon emissions by 2050.

Asked whether he still estimated the chances of success in Glasgow at six on a scale of 10, as he did in September, Johnson told the BBC: “I would say it’s more or less the same thing.”

“What we need to do is ensure that, at the COP summit next week, world leaders come together and make the commitments that are needed,” he said in Rome, where he attends a meeting of the leaders of the countries that make up the G20.
