Brazil to Present Plan for Moving Economies Toward Renewable Energies at UN Climate Talks
The plan outlines practical steps for countries to shift from coal, oil and gas to renewable energy, Brazil’s climate negotiator said.
- On Tuesday, Brazil launched its promised road map to "transition away from fossil fuels" at COP31 in Turkey, providing specific details lacking from a groundbreaking agreement made three years ago.
- Three years ago at climate talks, the world agreed to "transition away from fossil fuels" but didn't provide guidance or details, prompting Brazil to design an intricate document with different "levers" for energy switching.
- Brazil's Ana Toni, who was CEO of last year's talks, told The Associated Press the roadmap translates a "big problem" into "smaller actionable solutions," urging countries to stop building new fossil fuel infrastructure to avoid creating "stranded assets."
- Brazil is also presenting other "road maps" during the talks, including one dealing with deforestation and another focused on putting details into the promised $1.3 trillion in climate financial aid for poorer nations.
- Environmental group Climate Action Network lauded Brazil on Monday for working out how to deliver what was agreed, while Stela Herschmann of Observat noted the roadmap clarifies that all countries can start their own transition path.
