In a few days&rsquo; time, world leaders will gather in Brazil for the COP30 climate conference. It&rsquo;s been 10 years since the Paris Agreement laid out ambitions for a net-zero future, yet momentum is waning. Fewer than a third of nations have submitted their 2035 climate pledges, and current trajectories suggest that the global warming threshold agreed in Paris will be far exceeded by the end of the century. Political shifts, economic pressures, and the US&rsquo;s withdrawal from the Agreement are all casting a shadow over the upcoming negotiations. Still, there are glimmers of progress, including China unveiling its first absolute emissions target and Brazil pushing for a global carbon market. So can COP30 reignite the collective drive toward net zero? On today&rsquo;s show, Kobad Bhavnagri is joined by BloombergNEF&rsquo;s head of global policy, Victoria Cuming, and energy transitions associate Brynne Mary Merkley to discuss their recent note &ldquo;COP30 Climate Talks to Advance Amid Geopolitical Turmoil.&rdquo; Complementary BNEF research on the trends driving the transition to a lower-carbon economy can be found at BNEF<GO> on the Bloomberg Terminal or on <a href="https://www.bnef.com/">bnef.com</a> Links to research notes from this episode: COP30 Climate Talks to Advance Amid Geopolitical Turmoil - <a href="https://www.bnef.com/insights/37817">https://www.bnef.com/insights/37817</a>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
