These countries, some call them the high ambition countries.
They're like, we want our own space.
We want our own conference to really tackle the phase out of fossil fuels ASAP.
Here's Andres.
So this conference in April 2026 that Andres is helping to organize, that will be the first global conference for the phase-out of fossil fuels.
It's in Santa Marta, Colombia, hence the name.
And that's a big deal.
Colombia is an oil, gas, and coal producer.
Here's Irene Velez Torres, Colombia's environment minister.
I mean, it's an important question.
And in the Paris Agreement, countries did agree to limit warming and cut their emissions.
But the thing about the Paris Agreement, Emily, is that it doesn't specify the specific steps countries will take.
Here's Nikki Rice.
She's climate and energy director at the Center for International Environmental Law.

They tell me they're still nailing down the official agenda.
But the big conversation topic is how to transition away from fossil fuels in an equitable way.
