The panel \u201cFrom Dubai to Bel\u00e9m, in the heart of the Amazon: Brazil\u2019s path towards climate neutrality\u201d at COP28 in Dubai featured the participation of CEBDS, represented by Juliana Lopes, Director of Nature and Society. The discussion focused on COP30, which will be held in Bel\u00e9m, Par\u00e1, in two years, and the possible contributions that Brazil could make to the global climate agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As an example of the path that the country has been following, the \u201cBusiness Movement for the Amazon\u201d, an initiative of CEBDS, was presented to those present, highlighting the lessons that the experience, which began in 2020, has already brought to the companies involved. \u201cWe found two factors that determine the success of investments by the business sector in the Amazon: the connection with public policies and the partnership with local organizations\u201d, said Juliana Lopes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The discussion also involved Eug\u00eanio Pantoja, Director of Public Policies and Territorial Development at the Amazon Environmental Research Institute (IPAM) and Marina Negrisoli, director at Suzano, and was mediated by Marcello Brito, Executive Secretary of the Legal Amazon Consortium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For COP30, the expectation is that the topic of biodiversity will gain more prominence, motivated both by the headquarters in Brazil, the country with the greatest biodiversity in the world, and by the actions that have already been taken by Brazilian agents. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The panelists emphasized the impossibility of disconnecting environmental issues from the way people live. \u201cThere is no way we can keep our forests standing if the population is hungry,\u201d stressed Marina Negrisoli, from Suzano, commenting on the company\u2019s goal of lifting 200,000 residents out of poverty in the areas where it operates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Eug\u00eanio Pantoja, from IPAM, highlighted that an alternative to the country's challenges is the transition to the bioeconomy, which requires contributions of US$20 to 30 billion per year, for ten years, according to the Institute's calculations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Brazil\u2019s potential to lead by example is a major expectation for the coming years. \u201cBeing the first nation in the world to achieve climate neutrality should be one of Brazil\u2019s ambitions for COP30 and beyond,\u201d said Juliana Lopes, Director of Nature and Society at CEBDS.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
