G countries are expected to propose similar commitments at a meeting later this year of the broader group of leading and emerging economies to ensure tackling climate change is a global effort.
Getting all G countries to sign up to the ambitious targets set by some of the most advanced economies will not be easy, as countries such as China, India and Indonesia still rely heavily on coal. In fact, China has revealed plans to increase its coal production capacity in the coming months.
G countries
The United States and Germany have signed a separate agreement to deepen their bilateral cooperation in transitioning from fossil fuels to renewable energy in an effort to curb climate change.
The agreement focuses on the two countries working together to develop and deploy technologies that will accelerate their clean energy transition, particularly in the area of offshore wind, zero-emission vehicles and hydrogen.
The two countries also p C Level Executive List ledged to work together to promote ambitious climate policies and energy security around the world.
Germany's energy and climate minister Robert Habeck said the agreement reflects the urgency of tackling global warming.
Scientists agree that if the goals set out in the Paris agreement are to be met, deep emissions cuts will need to be made this decade.
Time is literally running out, Habeck said, calling climate change the challenge of our political generation.
“Rapidly scale up the technologies and policies needed for the clean energy transition.”
Ministers at the G meeting pledged to be more ambitious on renewables and to “rapidly scale up the technologies and policies needed for the clean energy transition .”
Canada has made good progress and is on track to phase out coal by However, if it wants to achieve net zero by , it will need to reduce gas power, scale up proven affordable clean energy technologies, and take steps necessary to allow network flexibility.
Despite these good intentions, global coal is expected to reach an all-time high by the end of , if current trends continue.
Developing countries have for years demanded a clear commitment that they will receive financial support to address the destruction caused by climate change and help them transition to a greener economy.
In a move to end this inequality, the G countries have now recognized for the first time the need to provide additional financial aid to developing countries so that they can cope with the loss and damage caused by global warming.
