On Monday (27), President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva departed for Dubai, United Arab Emirates, to attend COP 28 (28th Climate Conference), an event of extreme relevance for the global debate on climate change. His participation in this important international event demonstrates the Brazilian leader’s commitment to environmental issues of global reach.

On Sunday (27), former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva left for Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates, to participate in the COP 28, the 28th Conference of Climate of the United Nations. At the event, he will be accompanied by the Minister of Agriculture (Mapa), Carlos Fávaro.

The event will take place between Thursday (30) and December 12 and will feature the presence of various authorities from different countries to discuss agreements aimed at reducing the impacts of climate change. Afterwards, Lula will head to Saudi Arabia and Qatar to discuss the conflict between Israel and Hamas.

It is important to note that Saudi Arabia is the world’s largest oil exporter, a fossil fuel with significant impact on climate change. After COP28, Lula will continue to Germany, where he has scheduled working meetings with German authorities to discuss the conclusion of the agreement between Mercosur and the European Union.

Lula Arrives in Saudi Arabia Before COP28; Expectations?

The Soviet Union spent 22 years drilling into the Earth’s crust and reached a depth of 12,262 meters — they found water where it was thought impossible, hydrogen bubbling from the rock, granite that is 2.7 billion years old, and temperatures of 180 degrees that melted the drill bits.

Egypt wants to draw 10 million cubic meters of water from the Nile per day into the desert, irrigate a new agricultural frontier, and build a city where there is currently only sand.

Norway is drilling 27 kilometers of rock 392 meters below the bottom of a fjord to build the world’s largest and deepest underwater road tunnel — when completed, a 21-hour journey will be reduced to 10.

An astronaut spent 340 days in space while his twin brother stayed on Earth, and NASA found a “rejuvenating” effect, genes, microbiome, cognition, and immune system that revealed the biological cost of living outside the planet.

Xiaomi launches new smart stove with titanium sensor and automatic shutdown that detects an open flame without supervision.

China has just successfully tested the world’s first ground effect maritime vehicle, a craft that flies up to 6 meters above the water at 200 km/h, uses quantum technology and 6G communication, and can rescue patients in the middle of the ocean.

An engine that consumes 40% less gasoline than the average new car already exists and runs on 100% renewable fuel that costs only 10 cents more per liter at Repsol stations.

Starting in 2027, stores will only be able to sell refrigerators of categories A, B, and C, which are, on average, 17% more energy efficient, and the change promises to reduce almost 6 million tons of carbon dioxide by 2030.

CEO of a space company states that humans will live on the Moon within this decade and that the base will be an inflatable habitat with life support in a place where no one has set foot for over 50 years.

Brazilians can now pay with Pix abroad by scanning a QR Code in partner stores in the United States, Argentina, Portugal, France, Paraguay, and Chile, but the system charges a 3.5% IOF and does not yet work in all establishments.

The electricity bill in the Northeast will increase by almost 10% starting this week — five states already have a scheduled date for the adjustment, and the director of ANEEL admits that the increase is double the inflation.

A Chinese company has just delivered its 10,000th humanoid robot — and now wants to place 100,000 in factories worldwide by the end of the year, while Tesla, Boston Dynamics, and the rest of the West have yet to move beyond prototypes.

Brazil has never generated so much clean energy — and has never charged so much for it: while solar and wind farms break records, the electricity bill rises by up to 23% and R$ 52 billion in charges are paid by 35 million families who don’t understand why electricity has become so expensive.
