A robust future? Why Brazil′s ′bitter′ coffee is thriving as the climate crisis hits global crops (The Guardian)
|
|
|
Long seen as the poor relation to arabica, small growers in the Amazon are rebooting the more resilient robusta's reputationRead more in the Coffee crisis series hereWhen the Paiter Suruí community expelled the last invaders of their land in 1981, they faced a divisive decision. Should they keep the coffee plantations left by the colonisers? Some destroyed them because of the death and violence contact with the non-Indigenous world had caused. Others felt sorry for the trees and couldn't kill them.More than 40 years later, those estates that survived are being nurtured, supporting families and the environment. “Today, we use coffee as a way to preserve the forest,” says Celeste Paytxayeb Suruí, a famous Indigenous barista and coffee producer in Brazil. The award-winning fine coffee she prepares is called “Amazonian robusta”, and is produced in the Brazilian state of Rondônia in the western Amazon. Continue reading......

Less arguing, more action: will Brazil′s unorthodox approach to Cop30 work? (The Guardian)
|
|
|
Host uses Indigenous concepts and changes agenda to help delegates agree on ways to meet existing climate goalsShipping containers, cruise ships, river boats, schools and even army barracks have been pressed into service as accommodation for the 50,000 plus people descending on the Amazon: this year's Cop30 climate summit is going to be, in many ways, an unconventional one.Located in Belém, a small city at the mouth of the Amazon river, the Brazilian hosts have been criticised for the exorbitant cost of scarce hotel rooms and hastily vacated apartments. Many delegations have slimmed down their presence, while business leaders have decamped to hold their own events in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. Continue reading......

The era of fine speeches and good intentions is over. Brazil′s Cop30 will be about action | Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (The Guardian)

This is our message to world leaders: make this the 'Cop of truth', before people lose faithLuiz Inácio Lula da Silva is the president of BrazilToday, in the Brazilian Amazon, the Belém summit opens ahead of the 30th United Nations climate change conference (Cop30). I have convened world leaders in the days leading up to the conference so that we can all commit to acting with the urgency the climate crisis demands.If we fail to move beyond speeches into real action, our societies will lose faith – not only in the Cops, but in multilateralism and international politics more broadly. That is why I have summoned leaders to the Amazon: to make this the “Cop of truth”, the moment we demonstrate the seriousness of our shared commitment to the planet.Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva is the president of Brazil Continue reading......
