Cop30 deal inches closer to end of fossil fuel era after bitter standoff
Wealthy countries agree to triple funds for countries to tackle climate impacts, but deforestation and critical minerals blocked from final deal
The world edged a small step closer to the end of the fossil fuel era on Saturday, but not by nearly enough to stave off the ravages of climate breakdown.

China's fossil generation fell 0.7% in the last twelve months (Q4 2024-Q3 2025). compared to the previous twelve-month period.
India’s fossil generation declined by 2.5% in the twelve months to Q3 2025.
Why?
Mainly surging solar, wind & batteries.

This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months"
China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.
