The global climate agreement that was established in 2015, famously known as the Paris Agreement, was a landmark achievement in the world`s fight against climate change. However, with the year 2020 marking the 5th anniversary of the Paris Agreement, the world has experienced unprecedented changes and challenges that call for a post-2020 global climate agreement.

The Paris Agreement aimed to limit global warming to well below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels and to pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase even further to 1.5 degrees Celsius. However, recent reports from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) suggest that the world is heading towards a temperature increase of 3 degrees Celsius or more by the end of the century if the current trends continue.

This calls for a post-2020 global climate agreement that will set more ambitious and binding targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP26) planned for November 2021 in Glasgow, Scotland, is expected to facilitate discussions on the new agreement.

The post-2020 global climate agreement should prioritize the transition to renewable energy sources and implement measures that promote energy efficiency. It should also encourage the adoption of sustainable agricultural practices and the protection and restoration of forests, which play a crucial role in mitigating climate change.

Another critical aspect of the post-2020 global climate agreement is finance. Developing countries, which are most vulnerable to the effects of climate change, need financial support to implement climate-friendly initiatives. The new agreement should provide a framework for developed countries to support developing nations in their shift to cleaner energy and the protection of their natural resources.

Moreover, the post-2020 global climate agreement should promote international cooperation and collaboration in the fight against climate change. Climate change is a global challenge that requires a collective effort, and the new agreement should foster partnerships and promote knowledge-sharing to accelerate action against climate change.

In conclusion, the post-2020 global climate agreement is critical in the fight against climate change. The world has experienced unprecedented challenges, and the new agreement should set more ambitious targets and prioritize the transition to renewable energy sources, sustainable agricultural practices, and the protection and restoration of forests. It should also address the crucial issue of finance and promote international collaboration to accelerate action against climate change.
