By leaving out specific language on transitioning away from fossil fuels, the deal agreed at #COP29 in Baku last night missed an opportunity for leadership. Nevertheless, the momentum of the clean energy transition is now unstoppable, and the fossil fuel era is nearing its end.

My appeal to negotiators & ministers at the #COP29 climate conference:

Soften hard lines.

Navigate a path through your differences.

Keep your eyes on the bigger picture.

Never forget that the future of humanity is at stake.
