November 10, 2025 - This year's big UN climate summit opens today in Belem, Brazil, and CFACT's team of policy experts is there!

President Trump's withdrawal from the Paris Climate Accord, coupled with his epic takedown of climate dogma at the UN General Assembly, has sent shockwaves through the UN climate establishment. While the U.S. may be boycotting the conference, UN COP30 is kicking off today solidly under Trump's shadow.

It is time for the President to lead us even further. 

CFACT's Marc Morano said on Fox, "Our message here in Brazil to the Trump administration is simple: Get us out of this 1992 UN treaty, which was ratified by the Senate. If we can get the USA out of that, it makes it harder for a future President AOC or Gavin Newsom to get us back into this UN climate mess."

CFACT's Peter Murphy reports that Britain's Prince William also made the trek to Brazil.

"William, the Prince of Wales. Following in his father’s climate footsteps, 'Wills,” as his late mother, Diana, affectionately referred to him, warned: “All of us here today understand that we are edging dangerously close to the earth’s critical tipping points … The melting of polar ice, the loss of the Amazon, the disruption of ocean currents … these are not distant threats. They are fast-approaching and will affect every one of us, no matter where we live.'”

CFACT said in a press release:

"CNN has already hyped COP30 as 'one of the most consequential climate summits in a decade' — but it could prove even more historic. For the first time since the U.S. signed the 1992 Rio Earth Summit treaty, there will be no official U.S. delegation present."

"Undeterred, CFACT’s team of U.S. climate skeptics is stepping up as the self-declared 'unofficial' U.S. delegation to COP30. They’ll be on the ground to amplify Bill Gates’ recent climate realism — that climate change 'will not lead to humanity’s demise' — while backing the more than 100 nations that have yet to submit their so-called 'required' plans to the UN for hitting the Paris Accord’s net-zero targets.

"CFACT will also expose the clear-cutting of thousands of acres of the tropical Amazon rainforest to build a highway to accommodate the COP30 event."

“Withdrawing from the 1992 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change would be the most significant step the Trump administration could take to shatter this 33-year climate stranglehold on America. No Republican president has ever dared attempt it. This would etch Trump’s agenda in stone — making Trump 2.0’s climate legacy truly permanent and a nightmare for any future President AOC or Gavin Newsom to reverse."

David Wojick reports at CFACT.org, "One of the biggest things happening is likely to fly under the news radar, since it sounds vague and small. The new 'Fund for Responding to Loss and Damage (FRLD)' has a mere $250 million, but COP30 will see the formal launch of the Fund’s first call for project funding requests."

Team Climate will not relinquish a dollar of funding or an ounce of power without a fight.

Rachel Cleetus, of the Union of Concerned Scientists said, "No country, including the United States that is now being led by an anti-science, increasingly authoritarian Trump administration, can stop global climate action ... The question is, is it going to accelerate fast enough, given the dire space we’re in now with the climate crisis? We have this rapidly shrinking window. The science is absolutely stark.”

We're hearing a lot of similar talk at the conference.

Peter Murphy explains at CFACT.org that "money is the mother’s milk of the climate industry. Having the richest country and the richest benefactor either pull the plug or shift priorities is a very big deal."

While President Trump's actions represent tremendous progress in the fight to reestablish climate realism, the UN climate process remains incredibly dangerous.

CFACT is on the job. We'll keep you fully informed.
