Abstract

The COP 29 and COP 30 Presidencies and the Climate High-Level Champions (CHLC), Nigar Arpadarai and Dan Ioschpe worked hand in hand to deliver a COP 30 of implementation. Over the past two weeks, COP 30 has shown how climate action is accelerating across key systems, from energy and transport to food and health, from industry and finance to land, ocean, and education, with clear benefits to people and nature. All levels of governments, businesses, financial institutions, and civil society, including Indigenous Peoples, have used this COP to present work already underway, show how pledges and plans are turning into delivery, and how implementation can be accelerated by working together. This is what climate action now looks like in practice: ● A trillion-dollar pipeline for grids and storage, a quadrupling of sustainable fuels by 2035, and developing countries leading the race on industrial decarbonisation. Tens of thousands of electric vehicles, thousands of gigawatts of renewable energy, hundreds of clean industrial projects, novel carbon removal technologies. Under the COP 30 Global Climate Action Agenda, the Green Grids Initiative launched at COP26 and the Utilities for Net Zero Alliance (UNEZA) launched at COP28, united with the Clean Energy Ministerial, IRENA, the IEA and others to deliver a global plan to accelerate expansion and resilience of power grids and invest USD 1 trillion to triple their collective renewable capacity by 2030. This is what it takes to transition the energy, transport and industry sectors away from fossil fuels, enabling increased energy access.1 ● Hundreds of million hectares of forest, land and ocean protected or restored. Millions of farmers are transitioning to regenerative agriculture practices. Land rights of millions of Indigenous Peoples, traditional communities and Afro-descendant groups secured. A total of USD 9 billion in committed investment, covering more than 210 million hectares of land and reaching 12 million farmers across more than 90 agricultural and food commodities building resilience across entire value chains in over 110 countries by 2030. This is how we steward forests, oceans and biodiversity, and how we transform the agriculture and food systems.2 ● 437.7 million people became more resilient thanks to the Race to Resilience campaign. 162 companies, cities, and regions — covering 25,000 buildings and USD 400 billion in annual turnover — cut over 850,000 tonnes of CO₂ in 2024 surpassing one million tonnes reduced in total. The CHAMP coalition launched at COP28, delivered two-thirds of new nationally determined contributions with stronger subnational and urban content among its 78 members. Millions of jobs created, new skills developed to build resilience for cities, infrastructure, and water, while fostering human and social development.3 ● Trillions of dollars pivot into the transition with new partnerships and innovation to scale finance from the private sector, governments, as well as financial institutions, including for adaptation finance. This is how climate action begins to function as an economy in its own right – one that unleashes finance, technology, and capacity-building to reward protection and long-term stability.
