Wereldleiders waarschuwen op VN-klimaattop: tijd dringt voor klimaatactie

At the COP30 United Nations Climate Summit held in Belém, Brazil, world leaders unanimously emphasized the urgency of addressing climate change to prevent its most catastrophic impacts. The summit, hosted near the Amazon rainforest, saw sharp criticism directed at the United States for its reluctance to engage fully, particularly due to the absence of former President Donald Trump, who withdrew the U.S. from the Paris Climate Agreement during his tenure. Current U.S. President Jennifer Simons attended, but the lack of high-level representation raised concerns about the nation’s commitment to global climate efforts.
