G20 leaders prioritize climate change and sustainable development at Rio talks

rte.ie — November 19, 2024, 11:01 PM UTC

G20 leaders met in Rio de Janeiro to focus on climate change and sustainable development ahead of UN climate talks in Baku. They aim to enhance the chances of a successful agreement on global warming. The leaders called for a significant increase in climate finance, urging negotiators to establish a new financial goal for rich nations to support developing countries. This issue has been a major point of contention in the climate discussions. While the G20 emphasized the need for action, some activists criticized their statement as vague, potentially undermining trust in negotiations. The group also committed to a legally binding treaty to limit plastic pollution by the end of 2024.
