Briefings
Brazil produced a voluntary fossil-fuel roadmap following COP30 debates, proposing a 'Belém readiness index' for countries to self-assess their transition readiness. The roadmap was excluded from COP30's final outcome but will inform a separate conference in Santa Marta, Colombia. It emphasizes that transitioning away from fossil fuels is a development question rather than solely a climate one, particularly for emerging markets.
Key points
- Brazil's fossil-fuel roadmap was excluded from COP30's final negotiated outcome but will inform a separate conference in Santa Marta, Colombia.
- The roadmap proposes a 'Belém readiness index' as a voluntary self-assessment tool for countries to calculate their fossil fuel dependency and transition capacity.
Context

Limitations
Evidence is limited to the article's summary of the roadmap's content and the conference details. Specific quantitative data, such as readiness index thresholds or transition timelines beyond 2033, are not provided in the source text.
