G20 fails to reach consensus on emissions mitigation targets FMTNews FMTWorld
The failure to reach an agreement comes just a week after the G20 disagreed on phasing down fossil fuels.
Developed countries in the group demanded mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions by 2025 to limit global warming to around 1.5 °Celsius, and a reduction of absolute GHG emissions by 43% by 2030.The European Union’s environment commissioner criticised the outcome of the meeting in the Indian city of Chennai, which he said showed G20 countries were “nowhere” on their commitments to address climate change.
“We were asked to make bold choices, to demonstrate courage, commitment and leadership. But we, collectively, failed to achieve that. We cannot be driven by the lowest common denominator, or by narrow national interests. We cannot allow the pace of change to be set by the slowest movers in the room,” he said.
