UN Climate Conference 2021: Shell
- Question
-
To ask the President of COP26, for what reason Shell were not invited to COP26.
- Answer
-
As COP26 Presidency, we are working to encourage the innovation and commitment of everyone – people, business, countries, cities and regions – as we move the global economy to net zero emissions. This includes a wide range of energy companies.
The COP26 Presidency is working most closely with organisations that have strong climate credentials – that means companies which have committed to achieving net zero by 2050, have published a 5-10 year plan of action on how they will do this, and committed to Science Based Targets or joined the UN-backed Race to Zero.
Every country is responsible for choosing its own delegates and the UNFCCC was responsible for all accreditation to COP26.
