Update: The final plenary was supposed to start more than an hour ago, but as in most COPs, countries rarely respect the timing. It's now resuming. 🇨🇴 Susana Muhamad, COP16 pres, opens saying "let the force be with us, with the time."
Following that, countries will reconvene again in plenary at 9 p.m. and (hopefully) adopt a deal on all pending decisions, incl. a strategy to mobilize financial resources and a monitoring framework to track progress toward the goals of the Kunming-Montreal biodiv framework.
