Global Summit Addresses Climate Change: World Leaders Pledge Ambitious Carbon Reduction Targets

In a historic gathering at the Global Climate Summit, world leaders have unanimously agreed to accelerate their carbon reduction targets, marking a significant shift in international climate policy.

The agreement, reached after intense negotiations, commits major economies to reduce their carbon emissions by 50% before 2030, a more ambitious target than previously established under the Paris Agreement.

"This is a pivotal moment in our fight against climate change. The time for action is now, and we must all work together to secure our planet's future." - UN Secretary General

Key highlights from the summit include:

• $100 billion annual fund for developing nations
• Mandatory carbon pricing mechanisms
• Global phase-out of coal power by 2040
• Investment in renewable energy infrastructure
