    COP27: Sharp rise in fossil fuel industry delegates at climate summit
    The number of delegates with links to fossil fuels at the UN climate summit has jumped 25% from the last meeting, analysis shared with the BBC shows. Campaign group Global Witness found more than 600 people at the talks in Egypt are linked to fossil fuels. That's more than the combined delegations from the 10 most climate-impacted countries. Around 35,000 people are expected to attend the COP27 summit in the Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh. These conferences have always attracted significant numbers from the coal, oil and gas industries, who are keen to influence the shape of the debate. At last year's summit in Glasgow, a similar analysis of official attendance lists found 503 delegates connected to fossil fuels. This year that figure has gone up to 636. "COP27 looks like a fossil fuel industry trade show," said Rachel Rose Jackson, from Corporate Accountability, one of a group of campaigners who released the data along with the Corporate Europe Observatory. "We're on a carousel of madness here rather than climate action. The fossil fuel industry, their agenda, it's deadly. Their motivation is profit and greed. They're not serious about climate action. They never have been and they never will." The researchers counted the number of individuals registered who were either directly affiliated with fossil fuel companies or attending as members of national delegations that act on behalf of the fossil fuel industry. The data shows that this year, there are more fossil fuel lobbyists than total delegates from the ten countries most impacted by climate change, including Pakistan, Bangladesh and Mozambique. The biggest single delegation at COP27 is from the United Arab Emirates, who will host COP28 next year. They have 1,070 people on the ground here, up from just 170 last year. The analysis found that 70 of that delegation were connected to fossil fuel extraction. Russia's delegation has 33 lobbyists for oil and gas in their delegation of 150. 2px presentational grey line African lobbyists push to exploit reserves "If you are not at the table, you'll be on the menu". That's the view of Dr Omar Farouk Ibrahim, the head of the African Petroleum Producers Organisation, speaking to the BBC at COP27.
