Kew at COP26
We are committed to developing nature-based solutions to biodiversity loss and climate change, and supporting efforts to reach net zero emissions by 2050.
We are facing a planetary emergency, with twin crises: climate change and biodiversity loss.
At Kew, our mission is to understand and protect plants and fungi for the wellbeing of people and the future of all life on Earth.
That is why we were a proud partner of the UNFCCC at COP26 in Glasgow.
COP26 was a critical moment for humanity to commit to substantial and binding changes to tackle the climate crisis.
Kew scientists staffed our display in the UN Pavilion, supported by Bloomberg, communicating nature-based solutions to climate change and showcasing the incredible plants that could unlock a sustainable future for us all.
