Tackling climate change must be woven into the solution to the Covid-19 economic crisis, the UK will tell governments next week.
Environment ministers from 30 countries are meeting in a two-day online conference in a bid to make progress on cutting greenhouse gas emissions.
The gathering is called the "Petersberg Climate Dialogue".
It will focus on how to organise a "green" economic recovery after the acute phase of the pandemic is over.
The other aim is to forge international agreement on ambitious carbon cuts despite the postponement of the key conference COP26 - previously scheduled for Glasgow in November (now without a date).
Alok Sharma, the UK Climate Secretary and president of COP26, said: "I am committed to increasing global climate ambition so that we deliver on the Paris Agreement (to stabilise temperature rise well below 2C).
"The world must work together, as it has to deal with the coronavirus pandemic, to support a green and resilient recovery, which leaves no one behind.
"At the Petersberg Climate Dialogue, we will come together to discuss how we can turn ambition into real action."
The EU is already set on delivering a green stimulus. The Commission's Green Deal chief, Frans Timmermans, said every euro spent on economic recovery measures after the COVID-19 crisis would be linked to the green and digital transitions.
"The European Green Deal is a growth strategy and a winning strategy," he tweeted.
"It's not a luxury we drop when we hit another crisis. It is essential for Europe's future.

Who didn’t see this coming. Gotta hand it to the globalist pigs. They never give up. Johnson will prove to be no friend of the conservative cause. Sigh
Bunk.
Just, bunk.
This what an attention junky says when the world’s focus temporarily shifts to what he thinks may actually be a real crisis.
Hey! Look over here! I’m still here!
The most harmful “emissions” are from the mouths of these EU idiots!
How about, “Sunlight and warm air are effective deterrents to Athens spread of corona virus?”
And white privilege. Don't forget white privilege.
Cant fix stupid, they have learned nothing

BBC is full of gate-keepers for the gloBULL warming scam. love the “must” in the headline.
here is Roger co-ordinating with the Climategate email Uni, UEA:
27 Dec 2011: WattsUpWithThat: Oh, this is rich. BBC’s Harrabin asks CRU for programming advice
Roger Harrabin and Joe Smith write to UEA warmist Mike Hulme, ask: “What should the BBC be doing this time in terms of news, current affairs, drama, documentaries, game shows, music etc?”...
If anyone ever needed any proof the the BBC is biased, then this is the prime example. It is the proverbial “tail wagging the dog”, there’s no journalism here, only obedience.

It will be ultra pleasant for rich and poor alike. In fact there will no longer be rich and poor.
All university students, administrators and teachers should be banned from driving a gas engine car. That way they can be prepared for the future.
If anything, we need a heatwave to kill this crap once and for all.
From 1980, near the end of the “COMING ICE AGE” scare.

Changing the weather intentionally or otherwise weather modification..(Earth cooling vs Greenhouse effect)
“Do you suppose we can learn enough, soon enough, to pull off a balancing act with the CO2 blanket saving us from another ice age?”
“Sunlight and warm air are effective deterrents to Athens spread of corona virus?”
My thoughts exactly. I love winter, after two days of it I want Summer!
