CAN-Rac celebrates Just Transition decision at COP30, while major gaps remain on finance, adaptation and energy - Climate Action Network Canada (CAN-Rac) Belém, Brazil, 22 November 2025: Climate Action Network Canada celebrates the COP30 decision to develop a Just Transition Mechanism—a model for how the international climate negotiations can centre j...

🎉 Today at COP30, the world committed to center justice for workers & communities in the UN climate talks, with the decision to develop a Just Transition mechanism.

⚠️ But on adaptation, finance & implementing the transition away from fossil fuels, the COP30 outcome falls short.

Our full analysis ⬇️

Stay informed. Spot it. Call it out. 🌱✨
