World leaders shaking hands at climate summit

After two weeks of intense negotiations, participating countries have agreed to significantly reduce carbon emissions by 2030. The agreement includes binding targets for developed nations and support mechanisms for developing countries.

The final document outlines specific measures to transition to renewable energy sources and protect vulnerable ecosystems. Several countries have already announced their national implementation plans.

Key Agreement Points:

  • 45% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030
  • $100 billion annual climate fund for developing nations
  • Complete phase-out of coal power in developed countries by 2035
  • Protection of 30% of Earth’s land and oceans by 2030

Scientific experts have welcomed the agreement, noting it represents significant progress though more action will be needed in coming years. The implementation of these measures will be monitored through an international reporting system.
