One month ahead of COP27 - the United Nations Climate Change Conference, the European Committee of the Regions (CoR) calls for subnational governments to have a stronger role in global climate negotiations and further recognition in the implementation of the Paris agreement. EU cities and regions propose a global system to collect and monitor cities and regions' emissions reductions and calls on Member States and the Council of the EU to unequivocally support the inclusion, within the COP27 conclusions, of the urgent need for multilevel cooperation action and for the full involvement of local and regional authorities in the implementation of the Paris agreement.
