From November 10 to 21, Brazil will host the 30th United Nations Climate Change Conference, COP 30, in Belém, Pará. The event will bring together world leaders and non-governmental organizations, as well as representatives of civil society and scientists, to discuss the future of the planet and actions to combat climate change.

The choice of Brazil to host COP 30 reflects the country’s strategic importance in the global environmental scenario and the recognition of its biodiversity. It is no coincidence that Belém will host the event: the Amazon holds a central place in discussions on climate and sustainability.

COP 30 is an opportunity for Brazil to showcase its initiatives in environmental preservation, sustainable development, and energy transition, and to establish itself as a leader in the search for global solutions to the worsening climate crisis—which has been accelerated in recent decades by increased greenhouse gas emissions, mainly due to the burning of fossil fuels, deforestation, and unsustainable agricultural practices.

In addition to positioning the country as an example in the transition to a more equitable and sustainable development model, COP 30 can boost investments in clean technologies, renewable energies, and sustainable production chains, generating economic and social benefits for Brazil.

In this Ebook, we present a brief introduction to the COPs and Brazil’s role in climate negotiations in recent years. We also outline the country’s prospects, considering the thematic axes of the COP 30 Action Agenda. We also analyze the advances and setbacks in relation to the environment generated by the Tax Reform. Reading this eBook helps you to gain a better understanding of what will be discussed at the conference and how the country has been preparing for a more sustainable future.
