From all over the country and from more than 40 nations, Black women began to arrive in the federal capital last week for one of the most important political mobilizations of the decade. This new edition of the National Black Women’s March brought not only the symbolic weight of memory, but also the affirmation that the historical moment calls for more protagonism, more confrontation of institutional racism, more public policies, and more spaces in power for those who sustain the country and continue to be most affected by inequalities.

Lessons For Climate Advocates From Bill Gates ‘Climate Hack’

November 28, 2025 Liam Kavanagh, DeSmog. Strategize! Bill Gates, Brazil, climate crisis, COP30

Many were frustrated, justifiably, by Bill Gates’ ability to steal headlines ahead of this year’s just-concluded round of U.N. climate talks, COP30. Gates did so by telling the climate community, on his blog, what he believes is a ‘hard truth’: that we are ‘diverting resources from the most effective things that should be done to to improve life in a warming world,’ notably fighting poverty and disease, including by boosting economic growth. By focusing on limiting the rise in average global temperatures as the sole metric of success, climate advocates are missing opportunities to ‘prevent suffering, particularly for those in the toughest conditions who live in the world’s poorest countries.’

COP30 Backpedals On Climate Action

Belem, Brazil—After negotiators at COP30 retreated from meaningful climate action by failing to specifically mention the need to stop using fossil fuels in the final conference documents published Saturday, the disappointment inside the COP30 conference center was as pervasive as the diesel fumes from the generators outside the tent. This year’s United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change was billed as the “COP of Truth” by host country Brazil, but it could go down in history “as the deadliest talk show ever,” said Harjeet Singh, founding director of the Satat Sampada Climate Foundation in India and strategic advisor to the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty Initiative.

Pesticide Industry ‘Hijacked’ Climate Stage At COP30

November 23, 2025 Clare Carlile, DeSmog.com. Educate! Brazil, COP30, Pesticides, pollution

Syngenta and other pesticide companies used the COP30 climate conference in Brazil to promote programmes to recover damaged pastureland that campaigners fear will drive increased use of toxic chemicals. Trade groups hosted multiple events to promote a technique known as ‘degraded pasture recovery’, in which land that has been damaged by overgrazing or other forms of poor management is converted to grow soy, sugarcane, corn, or other crops. Brazil says the approach will help reduce pressure on forests by opening up fresh tracts of arable land. The country has set a target to convert 40 million hectares of damaged pasture into production zones for food crops and biofuels over the next decade — an area almost twice the size of the UK.

Bolsonaro Arrested And In Preventative Detention

November 22, 2025 Brasil de Fato, People's Dispatch. Educate! Bolsonaro, Brazil, Coup Attempt, Prison

Former president Jair Bolsonaro was arrested on Saturday morning, November 22, by the Federal Police (PF). In a statement, the PF reported that it carried out “a preventive arrest warrant in compliance with a decision from the Supreme Federal Court.” Under house arrest since August 4, Bolsonaro of the Liberal Party (PL) was taken to the PF Headquarters after being detained at his home around 6 am in Brasília. According to authorities, Saturday’s detention is a precautionary measure and does not constitute the beginning of his 27-year and three-month sentence for which the far-right former president was convicted in the coup plot trial.

COP30 Isn’t A Failure, It’s A Farce

November 22, 2025 Peter Gelderloos, In These Times. Strategize! Brazil, climate crisis, COP30, Indigenous Peoples

Belem, Brazil — As the COP30 climate summit comes to a close here in Belém, in the Brazilian state of Pará, conference organizers have little to show after two weeks of highly publicized talks. This is bad for everyone. The United Nations Climate Change Conference desperately needed to restore its reputation. After all, last year’s COP29 took place in Azerbaijan, where fossil fuels make up 90% of the exports and where the government was being accused of carrying out genocide in the months leading up to the conference. The previous year, the COP28 was held in Dubai, capital of another petrostate.

How The United Nations Reduces Its Legitimacy More Than Global Emissions

Belem, Brazil - The 30th Conference of the Parties (COP) held this year in Belem, Brazil - a nation where 56% of the population identifies as Black or brown, global Black/Afro Descendant movements believed there could have been opportunities to center and prioritize the specific and nuanced ways the climate crisis impacts their communities. A study conducted by Brazilian based, Geledés - the Black Women’s Institute and the Center for Applied Research in Law and Racial Justice at the Fundacao Getulia Vargas School of Law indicates, “The specificity of the Afro-descendant experience in the Americas lies at the intersection of structural racism, colonial legacies, and erasure attempts through ideologies of miscegenation and racial democracy.”

More than 300 lobbyists for food and farming organisations have participated at this year’s UN climate talks, known as COP30, taking place in the Brazilian Amazon, where agribusiness is the leading cause of deforestation, a new investigation has found. The number of lobbyists representing the interests of industrial cattle farming, commodity grains and pesticides is up 14 percent over last year’s summit in Baku — and is larger than the delegation of the world’s 10th largest economy, Canada, which brought 220 delegates to COP30 in Belém, according to the joint investigation between DeSmog and the Guardian.

The streets of Belém were occupied, according to organizers, by more than 70,000 people on Saturday, November 15, for the historic Global Climate March. Unlike the official COP30 spaces, the march brought together the diversity of peoples and demands from civil society in defense of climate justice. With the force of the motto “We are the answer”, the tens of thousands of members of people’s movements held signs such as “Agribusiness is fire”, “There is no climate justice without popular agrarian reform” and “environmental collapse is capitalist”.

The People’s Summit began on Wednesday, November 12, in Belém, Brazil, as a space for resistance and an alternative proposal to the official discussions of the 30th United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP30). The opening ceremony brought together some 5,000 people aboard 200 boats, which sailed along the Amazon River basin. This initial mobilization represents the arrival of popular movements from 62 countries. The event, which will run until November 16 at the Federal University of Pará (UFPA), Guamá campus, seeks to counter what popular movements describe as “false solutions” to the global climate crisis.

Top American oil and gas producers are using trade groups to gain access to this year’s COP30 climate summit in the absence of an official U.S. delegation, DeSmog can report. ExxonMobil and Chevron — which are among the fossil fuel industry’s biggest greenhouse gas emitters — have sent a combined total of 13 executives to the talks, while both companies have either sponsored events or pavilions at the conference. In addition, Exxon CEO Darren Woods spoke at a number of COP30 side events, including one in Sao Paolo on November 3, where he noted in an interview with Reuters that crude oil and hydrocarbons were “going to play a critical role in everybody’s life for a long time to come”.

COP30’s Agrizone Showcases Companies Responsible For Environmental Crisis

The United Nations Climate Conference COP30, is currently underway in Belém, Brazil and will conclude on November 21. It has become increasingly clear that, just as the Landless Rural Workers’ Movement (MST) and several other organizations, movements, collectives, and groups warned, agribusiness is at the forefront of the supposed search for solutions to the environmental crisis. This, in itself, sheds light on the fact that the Conference has become a large business expo, in which the assets will be our territories, communities, and nature.

On Tuesday, Brazilian Indigenous leaders and activists clashed with security guards as they tried to enter the site where the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP30) is being held in Belem. The protesters demanded access to the hall hosting the climate summit and several of them carried banners and flags with demands for land rights, such as “Our land is not for sale.” In response, security forces at the venue attempted to block them, using tables to obstruct their entry. However, the protesters bypassed the security checkpoints and entered the lobby of the UN-run tent where the negotiations take place. At that moment, members of the national delegations were preparing to leave the venue.

COP30 Takes Place In Brazil, Seeking To Prevent ‘Climate Collapse’

November 10, 2025 Pablo Meriguet, People's Dispatch. Educate! Brazil, Climate Change, climate crisis, COP30, Environmentalism, Gustavo Petro, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, World

On November 6, COP30 began in Brazil, a United Nations meeting attended by nearly 50 world leaders to address the most pressing issues of climate change. The meeting is being held in Belem, a city located in the Amazon, one of the regions most affected and threatened by climate change. Brazilian head of state Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva is hosting a conference that aims to promote an agenda already agreed upon in the Paris Agreement which, according to the president, has not yet been fulfilled by the nearly 195 signatory countries. To this end, the meeting of world leaders will consist of three working groups (climate and nature; energy transition; and review of the Paris Agreement), in addition to a plenary session.

The 30th Conference of the Parties to the UNFCCC (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change) will take place in Belém, a remote, underdeveloped, and poor region of the Brazilian Amazon. Delegates from over 190 countries, NGOs, indigenous representatives, and Brazil’s President Lula, alongside COP President André Corrêa do Lago, will all participate in this year’s high-stakes climate negotiations. Missed Targets And Weak Ambition – It’s Now Or Never With 2024 confirmed as the hottest year ever on record, the U.S. withdrawal from the Paris Agreement, and the massive financial shortfalls left by lacklustre negotiations at COP29, this year’s climate talks are pivotal. A 2024 report by the UN revealed that current policies put the planet on track to reach a catastrophic 3.1°C warming by 2100
