DESCRIPTION: Climate change is becoming more noticeable and the need of climate action is more than necessary. With the Paris Agreement, we have defined the framework within which we must remain in order to prevent the escalation of the changed climate, and COP26 is the first opportunity to check the progress in this area.

Serbia’s approach to the European Union and harmonisation of legislation in this area has been further strengthened by signing the Green Agenda for the Western Balkans, which obliges us to take many steps to reduce all unnecessary emissions to a minimum, with strong EU financial assistance.

The process of transition to carbon neutrality in Serbia will require a great effort to decarbonise our electricity and industrial sectors, but also to accelerate activities that will help adapt to climate change in all sectors.

In order to achieve all this, it is important to understand the significance and benefits that we will have in this process, as well as the ways in which these topics will be communicated in the future and represented in the media.
