As 2025 draws to a close, Brazil’s COP30 presidency remains in the spotlight after last month’s climate talks in Belém. While the conference ended without consensus on phasing out fossil fuels, André Corrêa do Lago, president of COP30, tells NewspaperAmigo.com the fight is far from over. 🔥
"The conversation didn’t stop when the gavel came down," Corrêa do Lago said, emphasizing Brazil’s role in bridging gaps between nations. Despite setbacks, he highlighted progress on renewable energy partnerships and carbon credit frameworks—key themes for young professionals and eco-entrepreneurs tracking green investments. 💼🌿
Students and climate advocates will find hope in his message: "2025 isn’t the endgame. We’re building tools now that will define the next decade." With extreme weather events dominating headlines this year, his call for "pragmatic idealism" resonates globally. 🌪️💡
For the Asian diaspora and travelers alike, Corrêa do Lago stressed regional collaboration: "The Taiwan Strait, Southeast Asia’s coasts—climate justice must include all communities." 🌏🤝
