After a marathon 30-hour delay, the 2024 UN Climate Change Conference, aka COP29, finally wrapped up on Sunday morning in Baku, Azerbaijan. 🌍✨ And guess what? There's a new finance goal on the table to help developing countries tackle climate change! 🎯🌱
China stepped up big time at the conference, calling on all parties to stick together and embrace multilateralism. They emphasized the principle of \"common but differentiated responsibilities\"—fancy words that basically mean everyone should pitch in, but those who've contributed more to climate change (looking at you, industrialized nations 😉) should do more to fix it.
The delegation urged everyone to stay true to the Paris Agreement and avoid any backsliding. No going back now, folks! 🚀🌐
Chinese delegates were super active during the talks, diving deep into negotiations and consultations on various issues. Their constructive and leading role was a major factor in the conference's success. Way to go! 👏🇨🇳
