What is COP27?
COP27 is the 2022 edition of the UN Climate Change Conference taking place in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. It started Nov. 6 and will continue until Nov. 18. It is the 27th edition of the yearly COP, short for "Conference of the Parties". Attending the meeting are heads of state, ministers, and various participants from 197 countries and international institutions.
