"Despite historic environmental rollbacks under a president who pulled the United States from a key international climate treaty and recently called global warming the greatest con job ever perpetrated on the world U.S. civil society groups say they are gearing up to push for bold international climate action at the annual U.N. climate conference, COP30, which will take place next month."
"The negotiations will take place in the Brazilian city of Belem near the Amazon Delta. It is expected to convene delegations from nearly every government in the world to discuss the implementation of the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement.
