The 30th United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP30) will convene in Belém, Brazil, from November 10 to 21, 2025. This marks the first time the Amazon region hosts the conference, highlighting its critical role in global climate stability. COP30 will focus on enhancing Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), increasing climate finance, and advancing a just transition to renewable energy. Preceding the summit, Brazil will host the Pre-COP meeting in Brasília on October 14–15 to facilitate negotiations.
Infrastructure developments in Belém, including the controversial Avenida Liberdade highway, aim to accommodate the anticipated 50,000 attendees, though environmental concerns have been raised. Indigenous communities are advocating for greater participation in the conference, emphasizing their role in Amazon conservation.
COP30 represents a pivotal opportunity to reinforce global commitments to the Paris Agreement and address pressing climate challenges. e Informações do Brasil+2nationalcour
