World leaders are convening in Belém, Brazil, for COP30, which focuses on climate action, including reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The conference, hosted by Brazil, aims to advance the goals of the Paris Agreement, marking ten years since its adoption. Nearly 200 countries will participate, although the U.S. will be absent at the federal level due to a government shutdown. Key discussions will center on implementation, adaptation, and financing commitments to limit global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius.
