flag COP30 opens in Brazil as global nations push climate action amid U.S. absence and China's clean energy leadership.

flag The 2025 UN climate summit, COP30, opened in Belem, Brazil, with nearly 200 nations discussing climate action amid the U.S. absence under President Trump’s administration, which has withdrawn from the Paris Agreement and rolled back key environmental regulations, including the EPA’s 2009 endangerment finding and power plant emissions rules. flag The U.S. stance, calling climate action a "hoax," has raised concerns about global cooperation, while China emerges as a leading force in advancing clean energy. flag Key topics include strengthening emission cuts, securing climate financing, and adapting to worsening extreme weather, as current national pledges still fall short of limiting warming to 1.5°C.
