Twentieth Conference of the Parties (COP20)

The Twentieth Conference of the Parties (COP20) was an international climate summit held in 2014 in Lima, Peru. It brought together representatives from nearly 200 countries to discuss and negotiate actions to combat climate change. The main goal was to prepare the groundwork for a global agreement, which later became the Paris Agreement in 2015. Countries shared strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, adapt to climate impacts, and support developing nations. COP20 focused on building consensus and commitments to address the urgent threat of climate change through collective international efforts.
