GARMISCH-PARTENKIRCHEN, Germany (Reuters) – G7 leaders committed on Tuesday to creating an international “Climate Club” to forge cooperation on climate change and made pledges on decarbonising industrial sectors.
In a draft communique summary, they said they would commit to a highly decarbonised road sector by 2030 and a fully or predominantly decarbonised power sector by 2035.
They would also prioritise “concrete and timely steps” towards the goal of accelerating a phase-out of domestic “unabated coal” power.
