The UN climate summit, COP31, opened in Antalya, Turkey, on November 9, 2026, and runs through November 20, with more than 100,000 people taking part. For the first time, Turkey and Australia are sharing the presidency: Ankara is handling the organization and voluntary initiatives, while Canberra is leading the formal negotiations. The two countries are seeking to strengthen their influence on climate issues, but their policies are under scrutiny because they continue to rely on fossil fuels. Australia has approved 37 coal, oil or gas projects, while Turkey continues to support coal and oil and gas exploration despite its pledge to achieve carbon neutrality by 2053. Ankara is proposing to increase electricity’s share of global energy consumption to 35% by 2035, but the summit’s success will be measured by whether the two countries can address the gap between their ambitions and their actual practices.
