COP30 in Belém has come to an end, and as part of our special coverage, the Director of Génesis Sustentabilidad, Alejandra Cámara, shared an assessment of the main advances and challenges that emerged from this year’s summit.
Among the positive outcomes, the adoption of the Just Transition Mechanism stands out—a significant step that opens the door to defining inclusive and sustainable transition pathways. The summit also set a new record level of financing for tropical forest conservation, a crucial element for protecting strategic ecosystems.
However, the balance also reveals several critical issues. The lack of concrete actions to close the climate ambition gap became evident across three key areas:
Adaptation: Goals were postponed to 2035, delaying the resources needed to address climate impacts already affecting millions.
Mitigation: No official targets were set to reduce the use of fossil fuels, a central requirement for limiting global warming.
Cross-cutting finance: Developed countries opposed expanding financing across all areas of the climate transition, hindering the implementation of comprehensive solutions.
At the same time, the growing influence of fossil-fuel and agribusiness lobbies continues to slow down negotiations and shape decision-making processes.
