COP30 Approves Global Mutirão Pact Without Fossil Fuel Phase-Out Roadmap

Divisions over a fossil exit left a finance-heavy pact built on voluntary implementation.

Overview

  • Delegates in Belém unanimously adopted the Global Mutirão decision, with the European Union backing the compromise text.
  • The final text omits any explicit reference to coal, oil or gas and drops a roadmap sought by about 83–86 countries.
  • The agreement calls for at least tripling adaptation finance to roughly $120 billion a year by 2035 and aims to mobilize about $1.3 trillion annually in overall climate funding by that date.
  • New voluntary platforms—the Global Implementation Accelerator and the Belém Mission to 1.5—will coordinate efforts to speed national transitions.
  • COP30 president André Corrêa do Lago said he will initiate ex officio roadmaps on fossil transition and ending deforestation during the coming year.
