Is the global public tuning out the climate change debate?
Why it matters
The COP30 climate summit held in Belem, Brazil, concluded with significant divisions among participating countries. Key sticking points included the contentious issue of phasing out fossil fuels, which many nations could not agree upon. As the world faces an escalating climate crisis, experts stress the need for collaboration among various sectors, including science, politics, media, and business, to maintain public engagement in climate initiatives. The summit also highlighted the necessity for increased financial support for poorer countries to address climate challenges. However, the lack of consensus on fossil fuels underscores the ongoing difficulties in achieving unified global climate action.
