COP30 will discuss actions to combat climate change
Heads of state, ministers, diplomats, UN representatives, scientists, business leaders, NGOs, activists, and other civil society members from more than 190 countries will debate actions to combat climate change. One of the main events on the theme worldwide, the 30th United Nations Conference on Climate Change (COP30) will be held in November in Belém, Pará.
Brazil, which has a tradition of participation in forums on the subject, will have the opportunity to reiterate its leadership role in negotiations around climate change and sustainability. The country will also be able to present its initiatives in areas such as renewable energy, biofuels, and low-carbon agriculture and reinforce its performance in multilateral processes, such as in Eco-92 and Rio+20.
The main themes to be addressed are:
- Reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.
- Climate change adaptation.
- Climate financing for developing countries.
- Renewable energy technologies and low-carbon solutions.
- Forest and biodiversity preservation.
- Climate justice and social impacts of climate change.
The event will continue the Paris Agreement, signed at COP21, and discussions from previous conferences. Goals to limit global temperature increase to 1.5°C and climate financing commitments will be important issues for monitoring progress since COP29 and driving new actions.
