COP28 in UAE: Visitors flock Green Zone

As the Conference of the Parties of UNFCCC has thrown its doors open to the public, this resulted in an overwhelming surge of visitors clamouring to experience the wonders of the Green Zone.

The public Green Zone, distinct from the exclusive Blue Zone reserved for delegates, features environment-themed displays, talks, and shows accessible to the wider community through free one-day Green Zone passes obtained after online registration.
