The next two weeks are going to be very crucial for the world nations and its leaders in view of the ongoing #COP24<\/a> Summit.<\/p>\n The Summit began on December 02, 2018 throwing a serious challenge to world leaders of around 200 nations with regard to presentation of their future plans to address #climatechange.<\/p>\n The 2015 Paris Accord witnessed every nation giving its commitment to submit a plan for controlling emissions and promises of ramping up efforts for the same over time.
