G20

Standing as the premier forum for international economic cooperation, the G20 unites the world’s most powerful economies in pivotal moments of economic crisis and change. Despite wielding considerable economic clout, the G20 faces fierce opposition for its exclusive membership policies and weak enforcement capabilities. The stakes are always high in this council – for each negotiation carries the heavy weight of global markets, national pride, and the livelihood of billions. 

Now, it turns its formidable gaze toward one of the 21st century’s greatest imperatives of discussion, the Clean Energy Transition. Decades of humanity’s insatiable fossil-fuel consumption have catalysed rising seas, blistering heatwaves, and escalating climate disasters. Furthermore, powerful nations’ withdrawal from international climate agreements doom current multilateral environmental initiatives. Facing our inevitable future of global environmental destruction, the G20 stands at a schismatic crossroads, forcing a reckoning between the allure of fossil fuels and the uncharted promise of renewable innovation. Some nations brandish transformative, bold visions of a green revolution; while others fiercely cling to the pragmatic status quo of circular carbon economies. 

In this chamber wrought with antithetical foreign policy objectives, delegates must find a delicate balance of solutions that are both economically viable and ecologically sound. The G20 offers no easy answers, only high-stakes diplomacy, nuanced compromise, and complex negotiations. Delegates, the very survival of mankind and all future generations depend on your decisive action. The world is watching. The future is waiting. The question is whether you will rise to meet it.
