The United States has confirmed it will not send any high-level representatives to the COP30 climate conference scheduled for November 10-21, 2025, in Belem, Brazil. This decision aligns with President Trump's intention to withdraw from the Paris climate agreement, which is set to take effect in January 2026. The administration has emphasized its focus on energy partnerships and economic interests, often at the expense of global climate commitments. Critics argue that Trump's policies, which include expanding fossil fuel production and rolling back environmental regulations, undermine efforts to limit global warming and address climate change effectively. The COP30 conference aims to address global warming and promote rainforest conservation, making the absence of US leadership particularly concerning for international climate negotiations.
