- The UN's annual climate conference has begun, with world leaders from around 200 nations due to appear over the next two weeks.
COP29 is being held in Baku, the capital of oil-producing nation Azerbaijan.
The assembled delegate will discuss ways to limit and prepare for future climate change.
A particular focus will be how countries plan to limit long-term global temperature rises to 1.5C - a target set by the Paris Agreement in 2015.

They fly in on their private jets to save the world.
They think common people are stupid that don't see through their agenda..
They think common people are stupid..
at least they talk about it instead of ignoring or denying it.
How are they supposed to fly there Einstein?
@@maksudahmadov3229 Hot air balloon.
Why don’t they have zoom conferences instead of travelling around the world ?
Because not everybody can participate in a zoom conference at the same time due to vast differences in time zones! To be a truly global event it needs to happen in person.
Zoom calls don''t require pigging your faces in expensive restraunts, staying in luxury hotels at the tax payers expense. Or getting your face on the world media and looking good.These people are spongers, nothing less.
Zoom calls are too cheap. No luxury hotels, no expensive restraunts, no looking good on world television.And all paid for by the tax payer too.
Same goes for all the media journalists, green screen them around the world to report from home.
It would seem that they're not taking it seriously and imagine Trump's comments on that😆
A private jet in just one hour of usage produces the same emissions as 10 cars in one year. And 300 of them just flew in Cop29???
BBC had a report a few days ago saying that private jet use is causing huge amounts of pollution…they all flew in on private jets 😂😂

Azerbaijan has committed genocide against Armenians and took their land from them, a land that has been Armenian for thousands of years and yet they also back evil terrorists (Hamas and Hezbollah) and their biggest ally is the worst, when it comes to genocide, in history. Turkey has committed genocide against Israel, Armenia (multiple times), Kurdistan, Greeks and Cypriots. Inherently evil people should not be holding conferences.

What an absolute joke, as if COP28 in Qatar wasn't already.
The joke continues for another year.
Azerbaijan has spent billions for this🤦🏼♂️
frrr
No, ruling family earns billions, as all the 5 star hotels, restaurants, banks belong to them.
We even paid for some delegations so that as much as possible countries arrive. Doesn't matter if its small island country which even doesn't contribute to pollution.

TH-cam deleted my comment. Azerbaijan is a terrible country, that thinks it’s okay to commit genocide on Armenia and actually kick Armenians off their land, which they have occupied for THOUSANDS of years. Also, their best friends (Turkey) are the genocide champions. They have murdered millions of Kurds, Israeli’s, Armenians and others.
The fact that some countries have nuclear weapons should be discussed. I don't mean the US, UK, France or Israel.

STOP WASTING OUR TIME!!
Fossil fuels for the travel, food, etc. When are they going to stop using fossil fuels? The hypocrisy.
Whats the carbon footpirnt of this meeting?
The only really meaningful action is the installation of 700 GW of solar panels this year, up from 400 GW during last year. That is done for financial reasons, the only real motivator getting anything done. This kind of meeting use worse than useless in comparison.
Climate, when the UK America and others are cutting there omissions, China India and others still doing what they want.
Buddy china is the leader in green technology and also they are one who put most wind hydro solar than any country
How does China, the second largest economy on earth, get exemptions as a "Developing" country? 🤣
During the first Karabakh war,during the 44-day war,they opened fire on the civilian population and committed genocide.

Is Russian fault they don't want to sell oil and gas and stop using coal. Coal is the greatest world poluter. And that sure hurts the entire world.
Words are only useful if they are translated into actions.

How do you get climate change deniers like Donald Trump to act? 😮
And Indonesian representative still has no idea what to do. Unbelievable.

Rubbish. Post a source or delete that ridiculous claim please.
@@monkfishmondfinsternis3162 Net Zero by Ross Clark.
Published 8 weeks ago.
@@monkfishmondfinsternis3162 Provides less than 1% of total electricity needs worldwide in spite of the billions spent over the last twenty years! Sometimes it can provide if the sun shines of the wind blows (Here in UK we have had three weeks with neither) much of the total demand but the fossil fuel power stations must be kept on standby negating much of the advantage and need subsidies for when they are unable to sell to the grid but must keep working. Electricity is in any case only about 20% of total energy needs. A total farce. The result is highest energy costs ever in developed world when we were told it would be so cheap that it would be almost free.
China classifies itself as a developing country.
China is not poor.
why do they not pay. ?
ITS A JOKE.
DO SOMETHING ALREADY!
I live in Baku and you can see the delegates in their blacked out limousines with Police escorts hurtling along at high speed with their Police escorts along closed roads.
The elite don't give a fig for the people.
Holding it in Azerbaijan who relies on oil for 90% of its GDP is complete madness.
These conferences wont do anything, changing to renewable is impossible, only path that might be feasible is CCS (Carbon Capture System). CCS at this point is highly inefficient amd expensive af but investing in development of this tech can change this
A band aid it won’t fix the source of the problem which is drastic reduction in global emissions. What we need is Nuclear, solar, hydro and wind power in collaboration.
Azerbaijan God Bless Youu❤
"Climate proof" what on earth is "climate proof" meant to mean. BBC presenters don't even now what they are even talking about. If they are going to present anything climate related they should be educated in the subject properly !!!!
No, they deliberately do not allow sceptics on their programmes.

Reminds me to Joseph Roth Tunda *No one listens to the wind over Baku* …
It's looking like COP29 is going to be a cop out.

People who truly want to change something and address the climate change are in jail. I am talking about Roger Hallam.
Mukhtar Babayev isn't the finance minister he is the minister of ecology and natural resources fyi
Saludos desde Mexico, feliz estancia en Baku Aservayanlos Otros Pueblos y, Y Nosotros somos Pobres. Que todas las conciencia se unan para un bien comun y la libertad de Voluntades hagan de esta Cumbre internacional a fabor del planeta y la Humanidad.
Yea, I have zero confidence in this conference, why? From the BBC:
"A senior official at COP29 climate change conference in Azerbaijan appears to have used his role to arrange a meeting to discuss potential fossil fuel deals, the BBC can report.
A secret recording shows the chief executive of Azerbaijan's COP29 team, Elnur Soltanov, discussing "investment opportunities" in the state oil and gas company with a man posing as a potential investor.
"We have a lot of gas fields that are to be developed," he says."
Gas is the most successful method of reducing emissions while keeping the lights on. For electricity generation gas has 50% less emissions per unit of electricity than coal.
Both the UK and USA have successfully reduced emissions by making the switch. The USA by using gas produced by hydraulic fracturing.
I am truly shocked.
Still lots of emissions when we need to look elsewhere
It’s 90% speeches and talking and zero actions, a good cocktail of good intensions and zero actionable plants to do something real
Just another wefrepresentitive meeting (CarboNostra cartel).
I hope, armenian online lobby and diaspora won't attack to comments and video with fake lie informations.
Good luck,Azerbaijan ❤❤❤

I hope america can show up as our world leading figurehead on climate change.
I hope you learn that this is a hoax,and not to believe everything on your screen.
Not going to happen. Not one dollar
Trump is a climate change denier who doesn't know what FINITE means. Why plan for the future energy needs of humanity when you can ignore it and only focus on the present? A leader who doesn't lead.
😂😂😂😂 this is just for normal people who pay tax … what about the war last year and this year is anyone pay carbon tax on the war or supporting war is don’t effect earth
Très bien pour l'Afrique et le monde entier❤
So basically all leaders are getting together to agree to give money to countries that don't have any relevance to us. Its not the rich people they are targeting for this extra money. Its the normal average person. So it's a big no I don't want my money going to Zambia.

The climate always has, and always will change. Deal with it
You should print this out and wear it like a badge saying “I don’t understand science and it makes me cross”.
“There is always background radiation, so a nuke going off has no impact.”
@@tomevans3798ahh, yes, another science believer.
O wise one, I remember scientists saying: steel, wood, glass bad, use plastic. How's that working out Fer ya?😊.
@@tomevans3798 i understand it far more than the likes of you. the issue is not about "change" per say. Change will happen regardless. that is a scientific fact, with millions of years of evidence to back that statement.
To deny that fact IS to admit you do not understand science. So do you deny it. has the climate always been changing, yes or no?
The topic which you should be addressing is, HOW MUCH change is specificity caused by humanity. to which there is no answers at all. the estimates range from virtually nothing. to the absolute extremes.
And since there is no specific number on what is actually caused by humans, then it is a problem that will be impossible to fix. since you can not create a solution for a problem that you know not what the cause is.
Get schooled child
@@Neutralino correct, during Nuclear explosion the SHOCKWAVE is the damaging part, with sufficient amounts of conventional ordinance, a similar Shockwave can also be archived, it would just require an insane amount to do it
The radiation, for a short duration sure, not so much on the grand scheme of things, both were rebuilt within 5 or so years. levels there today are no more than normal background levels., hence why Hiroshima and Nagasaki are still inhabited and still thriving after being rebuilt.
There is NO doubt that Azerbaijan will worthily fulfill its obligations at the highest level. Will all participants fulfill their obligations or will it be another farce? This is especially true for those countries that did not come to COP29 under various pretexts.
Which obligations exactly you're talking about?
