Hi John,

As the world gathers in Belém for COP30 – the first-ever United Nations
climate talks in the heart of the Amazon – Brazil has a historic
opportunity to lead the world towards climate justice.

But right now, there’s a dangerous contradiction at play^1 – and this is
where we come in. Let's seize this moment to push Brazil’s leaders to turn
COP30 into real progress for people and the planet.

[ [link removed] ]Will you take action with us now to demand Brazil’s leaders finally put
an end to fossil fuels and deliver real climate leadership at COP30?

As President Lula speaks about protecting the Amazon and tackling the
climate crisis, his government is allowing more oil drilling, even inside
the Amazon.^2 These new oil projects threaten Indigenous lands, widen
inequality, and damage Brazil’s credibility as COP30 host.

This is what experts call the ambition gap^3 – the space between what
countries say they’ll do on climate, and what science says is needed to
keep global warming below 1.5°C. It doesn’t have to be this way.

Brazil can close this gap by ending fossil fuel expansion, backing
Environment and Climate Change Minister Marina Silva’s leadership,^4 and
creating a clear roadmap for a fair, renewable energy future led by
Indigenous and frontline communities.

do Lago to stand with Marina Silva and deliver true climate leadership
that protects people and the planet.

The world is watching Brazil. COP30 could be remembered as the “Amazon
COP,” the one that turned the tide for climate justice, or as another
missed opportunity. Together, we can make sure it’s the former.

In solidarity,

Katrina for 350.org
