Brazil has called on countries to submit enhanced national climate plans by a key September deadline. Currently, only 28 nations have submitted carbon-cutting proposals to the UN, with major emitters such as China and the EU yet to provide theirs. The upcoming Cop30 summit will address the adequacy of these plans. Andre Correa do Lago emphasized the need for ambitious nationally determined contributions (NDCs), warning of collective responsibility for weak plans. Brazil's diplomatic efforts, including discussions with China, aim to foster cooperation for effective climate action.
