World leaders gathered for the U.N. climate change conference, COP30, in Belém, Brazil, to discuss cooperative global solutions to climate change. Once again, as in the past 29 COPs, they failed to commit to the scale and urgency of action needed.

Even as the U.S. stayed away from the talks, other wealthy countries refused to take responsibility for their historical role in causing the climate crisis in the first place. Meanwhile, big fossil fuel producers made sure the final agreement left out a discussion of fossil fuel phaseout altogether.

Please join us to hear from movement organizers who were on the ground in Belém about what happened there, and the road ahead for the fight for climate justice.
