The Transition Away conference has launched in Santa Marta, Colombia, following the COP climate summit in Brazil. The initiative was established by the Netherlands and Colombia in response to petroleum states preventing a binding phase-out agreement last year. Participants discussed a binding timetable for ending coal, gas, and oil use. Cities in India, Russia, and the Gulf states were not included in the discussions, despite representing 60% of CO2 emissions.
