If successful, tripling renewable energy can drastically cut greenhouse gases.The focus on low-cost finance for developing countries is crucial.

It helps these nations transition from fossil fuels to clean energy options like solar and wind.Many see the G20’s commitment as a needed wake-up call.

With 80% of the world’s emissions, their choices carry huge weight.However, the pledge is just the first step.

Concrete plans and regular check-ins will be necessary to reach the 2030 goal.Otherwise, the commitment risks becoming another empty promise.
