EU to call for global transition from fossil fuel at COP29 Summit 

The European Union plans to urge other nations at this year’s COP29 climate summit to honor their commitments to transition away from fossil fuels, according to a draft of the bloc’s negotiating position seen by Reuters.  

The United Nations climate summit is scheduled for November in Baku, Azerbaijan. The summit will emphasize finance. Major economies, including the 27-member EU, are under pressure to pledge additional funds.
