40+ Countries Pledge To Cut Heavily Polluting Coal, With Caveats

The video discusses the Powering Past Coal Alliance's pledge announced in Glasgow, aiming to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees.

The video highlights the need for big countries to stop using coal by 2035 to meet climate goals, with all coal plants needing closure by 2040.
