‘COP’ stands for ‘Conference Of the Parties’, with this year being the 30th edition of the annual conference. The UNFCCC parties come together to discuss the world’s progress on the Paris Agreement's climate targets and to plan future steps to limit global temperature rise below 2℃.

With 2025 declared the International Year of Glaciers' Preservation by the United Nations, this episode aims to help people understand these frozen worlds and how, by acting fast, we can secure a future where glaciers —and the billions who depend on them —endure.
