Crisis at the climate conference in Brazil due to Da Silva’s insistence on the rights of poor countries

and pushing for the abandonment of fossil fuels.

In addition to his strong insistence that major countries should

bear the costs of losses incurred by poor countries

due to climate changes that are not their fault,

Lula and UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres met

with key figures on the sidelines of the summit

This is an attempt to reach an agreement that bridges the differences on contentious issues.

Building community trust

Lula stressed to the press that what is needed is to build societal trust

without imposing coercive decisions:

“We need to show society that we want this path without forcing anyone.”

Without setting deadlines that dictate what each country can do,

Rather, each country should decide according to its capabilities and timing” –

calling for the creation of a common “roadmap” for climate action.

Despite Lula’s stance as a strong advocate for climate action

and promoting cooperation among developing countries,

He has faced difficulties in calming divisions related

to fossil fuel use and climate finance.

extreme weather phenomena

Scientists have warned that failure to rapidly transition away

from fossil fuels could lead to catastrophic changes in Earth’s ecosystems.

It increases the severity of extreme weather events,

with poorer countries being more vulnerable to the effects.

In a letter signed by seven prominent scientists,

including advisors to the conference chair,

It was stated that “the roadmap is not a workshop or a ministerial meeting,

Rather, it is a real action plan that shows the way from where we are today

to where we need to be, and explains how to get there.”

Ambitious commitments

Announcing this position puts pressure on leaders to formulate concrete

and actionable proposals, not just political statements.

While the United States’ decision not to attend seemed

to dominate the atmosphere of the summit,

Other influential countries have shown reluctance to make ambitious commitments.

Countries like India have criticized the inaction of rich countries

that bear the brunt of cumulative emissions.

She called for lowering barriers to the transfer of renewable

energy technologies to developing countries.
