🌍✨ Australia says COP31 co-presidency will work on a cover decision

Why we’re watching: Australia and Türkiye have agreed to take forward a “presidency-led decision for COP31” after consulting with different countries and groups, Australia’s climate change and energy minister said on Wednesday at the pre-COP meeting in Fiji.

The announcement that November’s climate conference will produce what is known among negotiators as a “cover decision” lays to rest the annual speculation over how the main outcomes of the UN climate conference will be presented this year. 💚

Unlike other formal decision texts at COP, cover decisions are not negotiated word by word between governments.
