Position Paper for COP30 in Belém
This year’s climate summit, COP30, will take place in Belém, Brazil. Here you can read the Swedish Society for Nature Conservation’s position paper ahead of the meeting.
COP30 in Belém will be a milestone moment for global climate action. It marks ten years since the adoption of the Paris Agreement—a decade in which the rules were written and the direction was set. With the rulebook finalised at COP29, the focus must now shift decisively toward implementation.
The first Global Stocktake confirmed that the world remains far off track to meet the Paris Agreement goal of keeping global warming to well below 2°C, aiming to limit it to 1.5°C.
The window to secure a safe and sustainable future is rapidly closing. Against this backdrop, the COP30 Presidency has underscored that this summit must correct course and mark a real shift from promises to progress.
The climate summit COP30 will be held in Belém, Brazil, from 10th to 21nd of November 2025. Here you can read the Swedish Society for Nature Conservation’s position paper ahead of the meeting.
