However, the need for a comprehensive<br \/>\nplan to completely abandon oil and gas is highlighted.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Emissions Reduction by 2030:<\/strong> Commitments updated in 2022 seek to<br \/>\nreduce emissions by 35% by 2030 without international financing and 40% with<br \/>\nfinancial support.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<hr style=\"width: 0px; margin-top: 18px; margin-bottom: 18px; background-color: #f6f6f6 !important; border: none;\">\n<h3>Pending Challenges: for Mexico<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Lack of Political Will:<\/strong> The lack of government interest in promoting<br \/>\na real energy transition is noted, stopping the expansion of renewable energies and<br \/>\nstrengthening the fossil fuel industry, especially through Pemex.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fossil Fuel Dependency:<\/strong> Mexico faces the challenge of reducing<br \/>\nits dependence on the 70% of climate change-related emissions generated<br \/>\nby fossil fuels.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<hr style=\"width: 0px; margin-top: 18px; margin-bottom: 18px; background-color: #f6f6f6 !important; border: none;\">\n<h3>COP28 Conclusion and Future Perspectives:<\/h3>\n<p>The proposed agreement highlights the progressive reduction in the use of fossil fuels,<br \/>\ngenerating controversy between oil producing countries and supporters of a faster<br \/>\ntransition towards clean technologies.
