UN secretary general says coal is a ‘stupid investment’ that would lead to billions in stranded assets

refused to strengthen the nation’s 2030 emissions reduction target. António Guterres has used an address to a sustainability summit to take an extraordinary public swipe at Australia’s climate change efforts.

'A growing number of G20 developed economies have announced meaningful emissions reductions by 2030 – with a handful of holdouts, such as Australia,' he said. Guterres implored all G20 governments to dismantle their domestic coal infrastructure, with full phase-out by 2030 for OECD countries, and 2040 for all others.
