COP30 Climate Deal Excludes Fossil Fuel Phaseout

Video Description

Support our work: https://democracynow.org/donate/sm-desc-yt Global negotiations at the annual U.N. climate summit ended Saturday in Belém, Brazil, with a watered-down agreement that does not even mention fossil fuels, let alone offer a roadmap to phase out what are the primary contributors to the climate crisis. The COP30 agreement also makes no new commitments to halt deforestation and does not address global meat consumption, another major driver of global warming.
