The United Nations' annual climate summit planned for November will be postponed for a year due to the coronavirus pandemic, the two co-hosts, Britain and Italy, and the world body announced on Thursday.
It was rescheduled for November 1 to 12, 2021, in Glasgow, Scotland, after a virtual meeting among regional representatives of the Conference of Parties to the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change, or UNFCCC, which serves as the platform for the summits, known as COPs.
