Brazil has introduced a groundbreaking global "roadmap" for transitioning away from fossil fuels. This is the first-of-its-kind plan designed to help countries move away from coal, oil, and gas. The roadmap, produced by Brazil as the host of last year's climate summit, COP30, emphasizes that transitioning from fossil fuels is both "urgent" and "possible".
The roadmap is voluntary and recognizes that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to this transition. Each country is asked to assess its own "readiness" to start the process. Once countries have mapped out their specific circumstances, they can then pursue tailored strategies to take action.
According to the roadmap, this process should be completed by 2033. This is ten years after the COP28 climate summit in Dubai called for a global effort to transition away from fossil fuels. The roadmap provides a framework for countries to take meaningful steps towards a sustainable future.
