The importance of global climate change in the international agenda is constantly increasing. All the countries have reached a basic consensus on actively implementing international conventions, strengthening climate targets and practical actions, despite the impact of the pandemic and short-term recovery. Under this background, the 26th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP26) was held in Glasgow, UK after a one-year delay, and achieved the expected results. Through observation, discussion and analysis, this paper conducts a systematic evaluation on the effectiveness of the COP26, and predicts the trend of climate negotiations after the COP26. Generally, the COP26 has achieved a balanced and inclusive package of results thanks to joint efforts of all parties. The conference marked an end to the six-year negotiation on the implementation rules of the Paris Agreement. It can be said that the COP26 is another major milestone regarding global climate governance after the implementation of the Paris Agreement. Mean-while, the Glasgow Climate Pact consolidated the global consensus on accelerating climate actions in the next decade, and reached certain breakthrough consensus on coal reduction, methane control, and halting deforestation. In the post-COP26 era, we still need to take concrete actions to implement the outcomes of the Paris Agreement and the Glasgow Climate Pact, create paths to accelerate CO2 emission reduction, and continue to strive for breakthroughs in important issues such as funding, tech-nology, adaptation, and cooperation, avoid intensifying international conflicts, work together to properly handle the relationship between energy security, carbon reduc-tion and development, and promote all the countries to achieve sustainable develop-ment goals including climate. China will continue to maintain the existing multilateral mechanisms and processes of climate governance, continue to take concrete actions to respond climate change, promote its own comprehensive green transition and global carbon neutrality cooperation, and contribute constructively to global climate governance. Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the COP26 originally scheduled in 2020 was postponed to be held in 2021 in Glasgow, UK. The outbreak of the pandemic has triggered a profound reflection in the international community, which has deepened people’s understanding of non-traditional security issues. On August 9, 2021, the IPCC released the report from the first working group for the sixth assessment report (AR6). The observation data showed that the average tempera-ture rise during the period from 2011 to 2020 was 1.09 °C higher than that before industrialization (1850–1900). In the coming decades, climate change in all regions will further intensify [1]. Although the pandemic has reduced carbon emissions in multiple countries in the short term, the trend is unsustainable in the long run, and carbon emissions may rebound after the end of the pandemic [2]. A new global energy crisis is also hindering a green recovery of post-pandemic economy [3]. In this context, the COP26 was postponed for one year, which overcame many diffi-culties and is of special significance, reflecting the basic consensus among countries in actively implementing international conventions, reinforcing climate targets and practical actions.
