Madrid to host COP 25 in December

The Spanish capital city of Madrid will host the UN Climate Change Conference (COP 25) from 2 to 13 December.

• The decision was taken following Chile's stepping down as host for the event due to the ongoing street protests in the South American country.
• The annual Conference of the Parties (COP) summit is a key event which allows representatives from around 200 nations to monitor and discuss the current situation of the world's warming climate.
