Europe Leads Climate Action

European Parliament members have arrived in Belém, Brazil, to participate in the COP30 climate change conference from November 17-21, 2025. This conference is a key event in the international climate change agenda, aiming to boost global efforts in accordance with the Paris Agreement.

The delegation, led by Lídia Pereira and vice-chair Mohammed Chahim, plans to engage in crucial discussions with global leaders and stakeholders. Their agenda includes a press conference on November 19 and side events focusing on the future of EU climate policy and enhancing global climate goals post-Paris Agreement.

COP30 marks a decade since the Paris Agreement, highlighting the urgency for concrete actions rather than rhetoric. The discussions will cover topics such as climate finance, carbon markets, adaptation strategies, and the essential phasing-out of fossil fuels to meet the 1.5°C temperature goal. This conference is seen as a critical juncture for assessing progress and setting more ambitious goals for future climate action.
