Representatives from over 190 countries have reached a landmark agreement to cut carbon emissions by 60% before 2035, marking the most ambitious climate accord in history.
The deal, brokered after two weeks of intense negotiations in Geneva, includes binding commitments from the world's largest emitters and a $500 billion fund to support developing nations in their transition to renewable energy.
"This is the moment future generations will look back on," said UN Secretary-General at the closing ceremony. "We have chosen action over inaction, hope over despair."
Key provisions of the agreement include phasing out coal power by 2032, tripling global renewable energy capacity, and establishing a carbon border adjustment mechanism to prevent emissions leakage.
