With 100 days to COP26, what are these climate talks and why are they so important?
Almost every year since 1995, world leaders have met in person to discuss the climate crisis at a meeting known as Conference of the Parties (COP).
The "parties" are the more than 190 countries who signed up to the United Nations (UN) Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the UN's climate body.
The COP is effectively the UNFCCC decision-making body that meets once a year to negotiate on how to best tackle climate change.
