"One of the most consequential rounds of global climate negotiations has kicked off in Belém, Brazil. Leaders from nearly every country in the world - but notably, not the US - are gathering to try to ramp up action on climate change during a time of tremendous transformation when it comes to both energy systems and international cooperation."
"This year's UN climate negotiations come as fears about rising costs, trade threats, and AI throw the world out of whack. But there's still progress that can be made."
COP30 convenes in Belém, Brazil as a critical round of global climate negotiations with leaders from nearly every country, excluding the US, aiming to ramp up action on climate change. The talks unfold amid fears about rising costs, trade threats, and rapid advances in AI that are destabilizing global systems. Negotiations will reveal how a shuffling world order influences energy systems, international cooperation, and climate outcomes for current and future generations. More than 195 nations that ratified the 1992 United Nations Framework Convention participate in the 30th annual Conference of the Parties, and talks run through November 21.
