Brazil's vice-president and trade minister Geraldo Alckmin launched a public consultation on the country's national industry decarbonization strategy (Endi) during the UN Cop 30 climate summit in Belem.
Endi's goal is to align industry decarbonization with sustainable economic development through four pillars: training workers and promoting technological innovation; replacing fossil-based feedstocks energy sources with sustainable alternatives; driving demand for low-carbon products; and creating credit tools, tax incentives and trade defense mechanisms.
Brazil's industry association CNI signed a letter of intent during the launch aimed at supporting Brazil in reaching its goals of achieving net-zero by 2050. Its nationally determined contribution envisions a 67pc cut in greenhouse gas emissions by 2035 compared with 2005 levels.
The public call will run through 17 January. Participants can make comments here.
