NPR - Delegates from nearly 200 countries have begun climate negotiations at the COP30 in Brazil. As with previous summits, the negotiations begin on a weak note as countries are still not meeting their goals to cut heat-trapping emissions from burning fossil fuels.
The world is on track for five degrees Fahrenheit of warming currently, NPR’s Lauren Sommer reports, which could lead to heatwaves and storms becoming more intense, as well as ecosystems like coral reefs having a low chance of survival. But there’s good news: over 90% of new power projects built last year were renewable showing electricity is becoming cleaner globally.
