Coal Usage Support Discontinued
The meeting of the G-7 or Group of Seven countries has agreed to increase efforts to overcome the impacts of climate change.
One of the efforts made is to stop the use of coal. The seven countries, namely Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Britain and the United States, also renewed a pledge to raise 100 billion US dollars per year to help poor countries reduce emissions. Environmental expert and "People's Champion" UK COP26, Sir David Attenborough, at the G-7 meeting in the UK said, our world is currently experiencing a tremendous setback. “The climate is heating up fast, no doubt about it. The inequality of our society and nation is clear,” said Sir David Attenborough as released by the British Embassy in Jakarta, “Coal power generation is the biggest cause of greenhouse gas emissions. Global investment in coal-fired power plants is incompatible with keeping the Earth's temperature rise to no more than 1.5 degrees Celsius," their official statement said. With the G-7 statement to end coal, China will become a country that will dominate the use of coal. So far, China is responsible for more than half of the world's coal burning each year, both domestically and by investments abroad, including in Indonesia. British Ambassador to Indonesia and Timor Leste Owen Jenkins said the meeting of the G-7 leaders had shown progress in overcoming the crisis. He hopes to work with Indonesia on a number of new positions from the G-7, including access to Planet Blue funds to restore and protect the oceans.
