What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

At the COP31 conference in Turkey, Simon Stiell urged negotiators to move swiftly toward a deal and avoid tactical delays. Observers noted that big fossil fuel producers and consumers are resisting any agreement that specifies firm new targets or a shift away from oil, gas, and coal. Turkey is striving to place a proposal to expand global electrification at the center of a potential deal.
