Start of COP 29 Conference

At the opening ceremony of COP 29, there was a heavyweight delegation. The Vice President of the Republic and Minister of Development, Industry, Commerce and Services (MDIC), Geraldo Alckmin, led the Brazilian delegation. Alongside him were the president of ApexBrasil, Jorge Viana, as well as ministers, lawmakers, and representatives of civil society. The Brazilian government reaffirmed its commitment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 67% by 2035, based on 2005 levels, as a sign of its dedication to mitigating Climate Change. ‘The Baku Conference aims to define new parameters for climate financing‘, Alckmin emphasized, highlighting the ambitious goal of keeping global temperature rise to 1.5ºC. Recognizing the country as an environmental powerhouse, he reaffirmed Brazil’s importance in global food security and its role in a sustainable future.

Brazil’s Climate Strategy

The Minister of the Environment and Climate Change, Marina Silva, reiterated the strengthening of the CO2 emission reduction target, highlighting that this effort includes collaborations in crucial sectors such as sustainable transport, agribusiness, deforestation, and industry. The focus is to lead by example, a commitment made through two main axes: the Ecological Transformation Plan (PTE) and the Climate Plan. This plan involves strengthening bioeconomy, promoting sustainable agri-food systems, energy transition, and circular economy. The Minister of Indigenous Peoples of Brazil, Sônia Guajajara, was also present, reaffirming the fundamental role of indigenous communities in the preservation of forest assets. Jorge Viana, president of ApexBrasil, emphasized the need for more developed countries to finance global decarbonization, urging them to adopt a production model and sustainable consumption.

Partnership and Brazilian Pavilion

The Brazil Pavilion at the event stands out with the theme ‘Paths to Ecological Transformation’, emphasizing the country’s commitment to a sustainable ecological transition. Located in the Blue Zone of the conference, the space was designed to reflect natural wealth, Brazilian diversity, and the interconnection between cultural events and discussions on mitigation of Climate Change. This innovative space hosts exhibitions and debates probing integrated solutions to achieve the zero coal target. Its realization is the result of collaboration between ApexBrasil and entities such as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Finance, Ministry of the Environment, among others, and engaged sponsors in the climate agenda such as Banco do Brasil and CAIXA Econômica.

COP 29 Schedule

At the panel ‘The Future of Agribusiness’, held on the last day 12, Ambassador Roberto Azevêdo, president of the International Initiative for Brazilian Agribusiness, moderated a debate on the contemporary challenges of efficient agriculture. This Wednesday, the 13th, the Brazil Climate Investments and Ecological Transformation Platform (BIP) will be introduced, aimed at fostering progress towards economic decarbonization. The day will also feature discussions on the role of banks in the energy transition and the interaction of the inclusion concept in the preservation of the Amazon. The following day, Thursday, the 14th, discussions will occur on ‘Business Dialogue for a Low Carbon Economy’.

Debates and Conclusions

On Friday, the 15th, the panels will address topics such as ‘Energy Transition in the Transport Sector’, ‘Carbon Credit’, and ‘Environmental Agenda in the Brazilian Congress’, which will explore the advancements in the fight against Climate Change. On Saturday, the 16th, the discussion will be about ‘Challenges of the New Industrialization’, addressing how to incorporate circular economy practices into the Brazilian industry. Until November 22, Baku will be a center for fundamental debates, where Brazil reaffirms its Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), reinforcing its leadership position. Ongoing discussions promote the mitigation of Climate Change through international cooperation focused on climate financing and the preservation of sustainable agri-food systems.
