Briefings

Brazil produced a voluntary fossil-fuel roadmap following COP30 debates, rejecting inclusion in COP30's outcome. The plan emphasizes a 'Belém readiness index' for self-assessment and aims for action by 2033. It acknowledges the need to 'overshoot' 1.5C targets while noting existing policies. The roadmap was not part of the UN climate process but will be discussed informally at COP31 in Turkey.

Key points

• Brazil rejected inclusion of the fossil-fuel roadmap in COP30's negotiated outcome, choosing instead to create a separate voluntary plan.
• The roadmap proposes a 'Belém readiness index' as a voluntary self-assessment tool to diagnose countries' readiness for transitioning away from fossil fuels.

Context

COP30 in Belém saw 85 countries call for a global roadmap, but Brazil excluded it from the final outcome. The roadmap was developed after COP28's stocktake and aims to guide countries through a diagnosis phase before pursuing tailored action by 2033.

Limitations

The evidence is limited to the article's summary of the roadmap's content and the COP30/COP31 context. Specific details on the readiness index methodology, the exact number of countries involved in the informal talks, and the specific 'tailored levers' are not detailed in the provided text.
