Carta da sociedade civil latino-americana à Presidência da COP30
Summary
A statement from 82 Latin American and Caribbean civil society organizations providing recommendations to the COP30 Presidency to ensure the conference delivers concrete implementation results for the Paris Agreement, focusing on climate ambition, adaptation, finance, just transition, and biodiversity synergies.
Key insights
- The civil society coalition urges heads of state from G20 and developed nations—specifically China, India, the European Union, Indonesia, South Korea, Mexico, South Africa, Turkey, Ukraine, Argentina, and Saudi Arabia—to submit ambitious NDCs 3.0 before COP30. These contributions should align with science and the Global Stocktake (GST) and aim for global reductions of at least 43% by 2030 and 60% by 2035.
- The document calls for a robust adaptation agenda at COP30 that prioritizes human and nature rights. It specifically requests a new post-2025 adaptation financing commitment that at least triples 2022 levels, targeting USD 120 billion by 2030, delivered as grants or highly concessional funds to avoid increasing debt.
- The organizations propose a roadmap to mobilize USD 1.3 trillion annually by 2035 to transform the global financial system. This includes emphasizing public financing, implementing taxes on polluting activities and wealth from natural resource extraction (based on the polluter-pays principle), and reforming international financial institutions.
- The statement demands a clear, dated roadmap for an orderly and equitable phase-out of fossil fuels, to be presented by heads of state (particularly from developed nations and major producers/consumers) during the COP30 Leaders' Summit to end extractivism in the Global South.
- The coalition advocates for strengthening synergies between the three Rio Conventions (Climate, Biodiversity, and Desertification) through integrated national governance. They specifically urge developed countries to capitalize the Tropical Forests Forever Fund (TFFF) to stop and reverse deforestation by 2030 and conserve 30% of the planet's land surface by 2030.
- The document requests the operationalization of the Loss and Damage Response Fund with new, additional, and predictable resources, ensuring direct access for the most affected communities and specific mechanisms for the Latin American region to address increasing extreme events.
