The first Conference of the Parties was marked by uncertainty as to which means the individual countries possessed to combat greenhouse gas emissions.

- The last conference, COP25, was held in Madrid, Spain, in November 2019 with Greta Thunberg giving a big speech at the event.
The COP meeting in Madrid finished with lots of big issues unresolved, but an agreement was made about cutting carbon dioxide - a gas that causes global warming.
Each nation agreed to devise a plan to cut their carbon emissions by the next conference in Glasgow.
