Tourism reaffirmed its growing role in global climate action at COP30, building on the momentum from COP29. Over two dedicated Tourism Thematic Days (November 19–20), UN Tourism and the Ministry of Tourism of Brazil convened a broad range of tourism stakeholders to advance solutions for a low-carbon and climate-resilient tourism sector.
World Health Organization (WHO) and global partners are calling for the protection of people’s health to be recognised as the most powerful driver of climate action, as a new global report warns that overreliance on fossil fuels and failure to adapt to a heating world are having a devastating toll on human health.
