ANTALYA, Turkey -- World leaders, delegates and climate activists on Monday kicked off talks in Turkey on curbing climate change, which in the last year has led to rising temperatures and deadly heat waves in Europe and beyond, and played a role in disasters such as the devastating floods in Nepal.
The annual UN climate summit opened in Antalya, Turkey, on Monday, Nov. 9, according to Anadolu Agency and The Jerusalem Post. The Jerusalem Post reported that the gathering began with calls for global climate action, while Al-Monitor, carrying a Reuters report, said leaders urged countries to speed up efforts against global warming as the two-week meeting began. Al Jazeera reported Türkiye aims for electricity to make up 35 percent of global energy demand by 2035, and iheart.com reported the US is skipping the summit.
