COP21 will be a crucial round of international climate negotiations with the main objective to endorse a legally binding international climate agreement, under which all parties would commit to make necessary efforts to keep global warming below 2°C by the end of the century.

DG research and innovation, as a member of the European Commission's negotiating task force led by DG CLIMA, will showcase at COP 21 the contribution of research and innovation on climate-related challenges:

• Climate services: promoting a flourishing market which delivers added value
• Strategic energy technology (SET-) plan
• Decarbonisation pathways: designing the opportunities of the low-carbon economy
• The Arctic: hotspot of climate change, test case for climate innovation
• Earth observation: making GEOSS a reality

Several side events will be organised in the EU pavilion.
