US EditionAt COP30, countries can't cop to climate responsibility
COP30 concluded with no fossil fuel phase-out roadmap as petrostates blocked action; 70 countries missed strong climate targets, while transparency and rainforest finance saw some gains.
- On Nov. 22, the 30th United Nations Climate Change Conference left Belém, Brazil without an official fossil-fuel phase-out roadmap, though Andre Correa do Lago said he would draft an unofficial one.
- Negotiations stalled as global conflicts diverted attention and about 70 countries failed to submit adequate NDC reports, while Brazil pushed rainforest preservation as a priority.
- Indigenous participants numbered more than 5,000, about 900 accredited, and activists stormed secure zones while youth delegates noted progress on transparency but pushback on fossil-fuel phase-out and finance.
- A new finance mechanism emerged, and the Brazilian government promised to recognize 59 hectares over five years, despite limited adaptation support for vulnerable groups.
- Yet the world now appears headed for a 2.6 degrees Celsius increase by century's end, while COP31 is scheduled for 2026 and Youth and Indigenous movements plan sustained advocacy.

The action occurred on the second day of COP30 and underscored how this conference would be different from others. This COP had been billed as the “Indigeno…

What was — and the uncertainty of what will be: Youth voices from COP30
There is a certain delay in nature — so says a metaphor that refers to the natural time of environments in responding to human actions. It attempts to explain that often, positive or negative environmental impacts are not necessarily immediately visible. The climate crisis we are experiencing today is a consequence of past choices. (Scientists call this “climate lag,” the time between when greenhouse gas emissions are released and when climate c…
