As wildfires burn in the Amazon, Brazil's Cop30 summit opens with a strong call for immediate climate action from global leaders. President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva emphasizes the need to transition from mere discussions to concrete commitments, warning that continued inaction could undermine public trust in international cooperation. Brazil has made significant strides, halving deforestation in the Amazon and committing to ambitious emissions reductions. The summit will introduce the Tropical Forests Forever Facility, an innovative investment fund aimed at preserving forests. Lula also advocates for a new UN climate change council to enhance global governance and accountability. The summit seeks to link climate action with the fight against hunger and poverty, stressing the importance of addressing inequality in climate policies.
