INDONESIA- Leaders of the Group of 20 and ASEAN recently reaffirmed commitments to mitigate climate change and reiterated calls to developed countries for the support needed to curb the crisis, but climate activists are pessimistic whether this will lead to significant action at the upcoming United Nations climate summit (COP28).
Despite the rift during the summit, the G20 leaders adopted last Saturday a declaration that, among other decisions, reaffirmed their commitment to reach net-zero emissions of greenhouse gases “by or around” mid-century through various technologies, including largely unproven carbon capture and storage. They also set a goal of tripling global renewable energy capacity by 2030, stressing that the energy transition must remain sustainable, inclusive and just while “leaving no one behind.” The leaders also committed to mobilize US$100 billion of annual climate financing for developing countries until 2025.
