Report summary
Negotiations at this year’s COP28 gathering are centred around the Global Stock Take (GST) which, two years in the making, provides a basis upon which to reset emission goals, and reignite global ambition. The mining sector has a crucial role to play in providing the materials for low carbon technologies that will enable the necessary deep reductions in fossil fuel use. The stocktake provides a chance to reflect on how the mining sector has responded since global emissions targets were first enshrined at the Paris COP21 in 2015.
