Brazil Aims for 67% Reduction in Emissions by 2035
Brazil recently announced an ambitious target to cut its greenhouse gas emissions by 67% by 2035, a significant step up from its previous goals. This target aligns with the country's updated commitments under the Paris Agreement, aiming to limit global warming to well below 2°C, ideally 1.5°C. Brazil’s revised climate goals focus on protecting the Amazon rainforest, reducing deforestation, and scaling up renewable energy sources, which could collectively make a substantial impact on global emissions.
This target is a strong signal that Brazil is taking its environmental commitments seriously and could inspire other countries to adopt similarly ambitious goals.
Governments play a key role in climate justice, by developing policies that protect our biodiversity, as well as working systems that align with climate action.

Brazil shouldn't be talking about the reduction of deforestation of the Amazon forest, ending deforestation should be the key here, because the Amazon is not in a good state.

These initiatives are part of Brazil's broader commitment to achieving climate neutrality by 2050 and demonstrate the country's leadership in global climate action

Brazil’s commitment to a 67% reduction in emissions by 2035 is a bold and necessary move. By protecting the Amazon and boosting renewable energy, the country not only strengthens its climate commitments but also sets a powerful example for others. This goal could significantly influence global efforts toward limiting warming.

This is a ten year commitment that emboldens Brazils stance and journey towards net zero!

@joseph_githinji It’s definitely encouraging to see Brazil step up its commitment. If more nations follow suit, we could see meaningful progress in the global fight against climate change, with collective efforts pushing us closer to meeting Paris Agreement goals.

@ann_nyambura_542 Def Def!! Brazil’s ambitious target could inspire other nations, especially those with high emissions, to raise their own climate goals and take more decisive actions to combat global warming. It’s a game-changer for international climate leadership.

This can be achievable, they just need to have a solid plan and stick with it

@frankoh_kihm_080 So, without tropical rainforests the greenhouse effect would likely be even more pronounced, and climate change may possibly get even worse in the future.
