COP30 - Climate Change Conference

COP30, taking place on November 10-21 in Brazil, is the annual United Nations climate change conference. The summit comes at a critical moment where governments, experts, journalists, businesses, civil society, and Indigenous peoples will discuss climate action to enable countries to collectively meet the target of keeping the global rise of temperatures to 1.5 degrees Celsius, thereby avoiding the worst consequences of the climate crisis.

This year’s negotiations take place in Belém, a gateway to the Amazon rainforest. It marks the 10th anniversary of the Paris Agreement, a landmark international treaty striving to secure the peak of greenhouse gas emissions to before 2025 and decline by 43% by 2030.
