COP30 Seals 'Global Mutirão' Deal Without Fossil-Fuel Roadmap

The Brazilian presidency moves the contested phase‑out plan to parallel documents.

Overview

  • Countries approved the Global Mutirão package after all‑night talks, omitting any explicit reference to fossil fuels in the final text.
  • COP30’s presidency said it will issue parallel documents detailing a fossil‑fuel transition roadmap and anti‑deforestation plans, with several decisions pushed to 2026.
  • The agreement calls for a major scale‑up of adaptation finance, including a push to triple funding, and strengthens transparency and adaptation metrics.
  • An 80‑plus country coalition and the EU denounced the outcome as too weak, while petro‑state and some emerging‑economy blocs blocked phase‑out language.
  • Negotiations ran past the deadline and moved behind closed doors, highlighting strained process and deep political divides over ambition.
