Militao was forced off after an hour on Tuesday, as Brazil drew 1-1 with Tunisia in a friendly in Lille. Carlo Ancelotti did not explain what the defender's issue was, but Real Madrid have now confirmed Militao has suffered an adductor issue, and he is a doubt for Sunday's LaLiga clash with Elche.

Brazil's environment minister, Marina Silva, has urged all countries to have the courage to address the need for a fossil fuel phaseout, calling the drawing up of a roadmap for it an ethical response to the climate crisis. She emphasised, however, that the process would be voluntary for those governments that wished to participate, and self-determined. The issue is one of the most controversial at the Cop30 summit in Brazil, with countries fighting over whether and how such a roadmap can be discussed.

Lucas Pinheiro Braathen made skiing history as he delivered Brazil's first-ever World Cup victory in a thrilling season-opening race at Levi on Sunday. Pinheiro Braathen, who switched allegiance from Norway to Brazil last year, held a commanding 0.41-seconds lead from the first run and weaved his way down through the gates again in an ice-cool second run to claim the landmark win.

We have to face a lot of contractions at this Cop, she told me. The biggest one, she said, is the exploitation of resources taking place to make the conference happen. Brazil wants to be considered a global climate leader but they just do this to show off. It's just discourse, she said. They cannot do that while opening new oil exploration. For us, doing this Cop in the most sensitive zone in the Atlantic is even worse.

The fund, unveiled at the COP30 Local Leaders Forum, is expected to mobilize roughly EUR 450 million in private lending.

A new report from the nonprofit Coffee Watch says that modern coffee production in Brazil continues to be a significant driver of deforestation, with hundreds of thousands of hectares of native forest cleared inside coffee farm boundaries since 2001. Beyond the global implications for biodiversity and climate change, the continued loss of forest in key coffee regions presents economic threats to the Brazilian coffee sector, driving a cycle of drought and yield volatility, according to the report.

In a room full of coffee roasters last week, longtime green coffee trader Mark Inman asked for a show of hands. How many people started buying green coffee professionally within the past few years? Approximately half the room raised a hand, to which Inman replied, "I'm sorry. I apologize. It does get better, trust me, but you're going to come out of the other end of this time with more knowledge than people who have been buying green coffee for 15, 20 years."

Customers at a supermarket on Avenida Rua Bolivar in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, are positively surprised at the price changes they've been experiencing over the past few weeks, as they are now paying significantly less for coffee and meat, for example. "Finally, some good news in these difficult times," says shopper Julienne Freitas, while speaking with DW. Her experience is not anecdotal, but rather echoed by a recent survey from Brazil's Inter-Union Department of Statistics and Socio-Economic Studies (DIEESE)

Jair Bolsonaro led a criminal organization that sought to plunge Brazil back into dictatorship with a murderous power grab involving special forces assassins and a massive disinformation campaign, the supreme court judge presiding over the former president's trial has claimed as he voted for Bolsonaro's conviction.

It is also the first time since the end of the military dictatorship (1964 to 1985) that high-ranking military officials are being held to account in a civilian court. The proceedings before Brazil's Supreme Court begin on September 2, and are due to continue until September 12.
