Global Mutirao: Uniting Humanity Against Climate Change
Hey folks! This past weekend (Nov 22, 2025) in Belém, Brazil, COP30 ran one day overtime but delivered a major win: the "Global Mutirao: Uniting humanity in a global mobilization against climate change" agreement. 🌍🤝 Li Gao, head of the Chinese delegation and vice minister of ecology and environment, called it a symbol of strong political will amid geopolitical frictions and rising climate risks.
What Went Down
- Hard-won Deal: Parties overcame protectionism and past pullbacks from the Paris Agreement to agree on a bold package.
- “Strive to do better”: This phrase became the talks’ mantra, pushing a shift from national policy to a shared global ethos.
- Bustling China Pavilion: One of the hottest spots for low-carbon tech demos, bilateral chats, and negotiation support.
- Future Focus: China aims to keep multilateralism alive, drive green tech innovation, and supercharge the Paris goals for the next decade.
For our South and Southeast Asian community, this signals that the green transition is irreversible. From solar farms in India to wind projects in Vietnam and urban greening in Malaysia, it’s a call to action for youth-led climate startups and policy advocates. 🌱💡
Next steps? Watch for breakthroughs in clean energy, carbon capture, and policy moves that turn big ideas into real impact. Our region’s young pros have the talent to make it happen—let’s get involved and shape a greener future! 🚀🌿
