CWN Editor's Note: Caritas Internationalis, the Church’s confederation of relief and development agencies, issued a statement on the agreement reached by participants in COP30, the recent UN Climate Change Conference in Brazil.
“COP30 closed in Belém on 22 November with a fragile compromise that disappointed many climate-vulnerable nations,” Caritas said in a statement issued yesterday. “The summit ended ‘with a whimper’: progress on adaptation and just transition offered thin silver linings, while the failure to agree [to] a fossil fuel phase-out roadmap left a glaring hole at the heart of the deal.”
