"The pandemic and climate crisis have much in common. Their consequences are global, long-term, complex and intensify global inequality. They lead to a return in the importance of the state and can only be resolved multilaterally. With a concerted targeting of the stimulus packages announced on greenhouse gas neutrality, investment in the future, jobs and resilience, the social and ecological transformation can succeed. COP 26 in Glasgow offers the final realistic opportunity to raise national climate targets such that the overall target of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius remains achievable."
