Behind The Paris Climate Conference with National Geographic Explorers | National Geographic
"The annual ""Conference of the Parties"" (COP) is not as lighthearted as it sounds. It is famously one of the most difficult attempts at intergovernmental cooperation on Earth. This year's agreement on commitments for climate change mitigation and adaptation has taken many months and even years to formulate and gather all the support it needed. For a few days before COP though, as there has been for the past decade, there was the Conference of Youth. Here, without the onus of getting nearly 200 countries to agree on something, there was much more of a spirit of challenge, inspiration, and even celebration.
