Amazon Rainforest Bulldozed To Build Highway for COP30 Summit | Planet Pulse | N18G
In a striking contradiction, tens of thousands of acres of protected Amazon rainforest are being cleared to build a four-lane highway for COP30, the global climate summit set to take place in Belém, Brazil this November. The Avenida Liberdade highway, touted as a “sustainable mobility project,” has displaced local communities, destroyed wildlife habitats, and fragmented the ecosystem—all in the name of hosting a conference meant to protect the environment. While officials claim the development will modernise the city, locals and conservationists are outraged, calling it an environmental disaster that undermines the summit’s mission. With world leaders preparing to discuss climate action, the question remains: Is COP30 saving the planet or paving over its future?
