⏳ A decade into the Paris Agreement, it's clear that actions speak louder than promises. Tackling #climatechange requires: 📃 robust policies 💸 massive private investment 🤝 strong collaboration between governments and businesses. We’re working on all three fronts. By building on the outcomes from #COP29 and gearing up to supercharge private #finance – including the $1.3 trillion needed for #climate mitigation and adaptation in developing countries – we’re laying the groundwork for success at #COP30. 🚀 As Brazil prepares to host the conference in Belem this November, our team met in Brasilia with key leaders in their government to show our global business network’s commitment to real #climateaction. We’re thrilled to congratulate the newly appointed COP30 President, Ambassador André Corrêa do Lago, and celebrate Brazil’s climate leadership on the global stage. Next stop: Belem, to connect with local officials and offer our full support for a lasting legacy and ambitious, concrete results. ICC Brasil
