I wonder how that will work out. Will it include stopping the 40,000 people who will take fossil fueled travel to Brazil, do it via Zoom?
Brazil is crafting an action plan on climate and health ahead of COP30
Ensuring impacts on health are prioritized in climate change discussions hasn’t always been an easy sell in a discussion that was long dominated by imagery of melting icebergs and starving polar bears.
But in recent years, the conversation has broadened beyond the environmental impacts of climate change — bringing greater visibility to the human health tolls such as cholera outbreaks, the impact of extreme heat on pregnant mothers and babies, natural disaster-battered clinics, and malnourished children.

Brazil is currently drafting — in consultation with civil society, international organizations, academia, and other countries — an action plan for climate change adaptation in the health sector that will be presented to countries at COP30. It aims to offer a set of evidence-based, cost-effective adaptation actions to countries, Brazilian Health Minister Alexandre Padilha said during the World Health Assembly, or WHA, this week in Geneva. This ranges from early warning systems to strategic medicine stockpiles.
“We are rapidly approaching a point of no return in global temperature rise and environmental degradation. … The consequence for public health must not be underestimated,” he said. “Our proposal is grounded in the guiding principles of health equity, climate and health leadership, good governance, and social participation.”
OK, yeah, yeah, yeah. Also Brazil
Also Brazil https://t.co/N2WTIloU0I

I mentioned this back in March. Save the climate by destroying the Amazon, which the same people complain about.
Brazil is one of the key problems with the rise of co2 in the world. They are clear cutting…AFTER BURNING….100 square miles of Amazon rain forest per year.
This rain forest provides not only a huge co2 sink but it creates a majority of the oxygen needed to keep the earth in ecological balance.
When they burn this 100 square miles of 50-150 year old vegetation that has been sinking co2 for decades they release an incredible amount of co2 into the atmosphere.
All one has to do is look at the charts carefully turned into a hockey stick and compare it with these countries around the world that began destroying their respective rain forest for commercial endeavors.
They match….burn down and clear cut rain forests around the world equates to a sharp rise in CO2. It is not fossil fuels…it is this practice that is circumcising the planet.
The world over needs to be planting trees at a preposterous rate just to ensure that we keep enough oxygen flowing to keep mankind alive. The rise of co2 even to 1500 ppm will be of little consequences other than as fertilizer for our forests and potentially causing the rise of the oceans by a meter in a couple centuries. If our world can’t figure out how to build sea walls in 2 centuries then we deserve to die off like the dinosaurs.
