New business coalition launches to boost government climate plans ahead of UN deadline

Some of the world’s largest companies, financial institutions, and cities have formed a coalition calling for governments to further their climate goals ahead of a February 2025 deadline to deliver emission reduction plans to the United Nations.
The coalition, called Mission 2025, is convened by Groundswell, a collaboration between nonprofits Global Optimism, Systems Change Lab, and the Bezos Earth Fund. It is spearheaded by Global Optimism’s Christiana Figueres, who oversaw the Paris Agreement in 2015, resulting in the world’s first global agreement to cut climate-damaging emissions.
