At the COP30 climate summit in Brazil, activists made a strong plea for a treaty to phase out fossil fuels, warning that continued extraction could lead to humanity's extinction. Olivia Bissa, a leader from the Peruvian Amazon, emphasized the urgency for action, stating that indigenous communities are suffering due to the actions of powerful entities. The proposed Fossil Fuel Treaty has garnered support from 17 countries, but activists criticized the Brazilian president for allowing new oil drilling projects. Despite past commitments to transition away from fossil fuels, evidence of real progress remains scarce. Activists are calling for international pressure on countries like the US, which has been criticized for its lack of participation in climate negotiations. The summit has seen discussions about the need for a roadmap to phase out fossil fuels, but pushback from oil-producing nations complicates the negotiations.
