At COP31 in Turkey, outgoing U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres gave a heartfelt farewell, urging the world not to lose focus on climate action.
He reminded everyone that climate change isn't just about the environment; it's a real threat to global security and makes poverty worse.
As he wraps up his term in December, Guterres called on future leaders to keep pushing for progress.
COP31 debates 35% electricity by 2035
This year's summit, co-chaired by Australia, is facing tough negotiations, especially since more than 100 companies and groups linked to fossil fuels are at the table.
Key proposals include a target to meet 35% of final energy from electricity by 2035 and cutting methane emissions.
But with so many interests involved, reaching an agreement hasn't been easy.
Australia's climate and energy minister and the president of the negotiations, Chris Bowen, says talks are ongoing and nothing is set in stone yet.
