IDEALITY AND REALITY –
Conference of the Parties, known as COP, is a conference
ECONOMIC GROWTH AND
which unites every country to solve the climate change
problem. This year, COP26 is held in Glasgow, United ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION
Kingdom. The goal of COP26 mainly focuses on finalizing the Conflicts between economic growth and environmental
regulations from the previous Paris agreement. issues have long been a problem to Brazil. The Amazon Forest,
known as the lungs of the earth, is important for balancing our
greenhouse gases release. However, in the past few years,
people cut down rainforests in order to produce more cash
crops. Moreover, the president of Brazil won the election with
BRAZIL’S ACTION the support of farmers, who hope to develop the world's largest
rainforest. As the result, it is hard for Brazil to strike the
Brazil owns the largest rainforest in the world, but balance between economic growth and environment
nowadays, more and more deforestation happened in Brazil, protection.
which causes a great damage in climate change.
As the result, the Brazil government claims that they
will reduce the 50% Green House Gas emission by ending
illegal deforestation before 2028.
ALLEVIATION:
Brazil takes actions on energy issue by planning wind and THINK GLOBALLY, ACT LOCALLY
solar power generation in the near future. It also assumes
that in the year 2027 the share of renewable energy sources First, for Brazil. Annual CO2 emissions in Brazil has raised
will be around 50%, which leads Brazil closer to its goal. since 1950’s and agriculture, land use change and forestry are
three main sectors that emit the most of the CO2 (Agriculture,
Land-use Change and Forestry, and Transport). Therefore, if
TARGETS & DECLARATION Brazil wants to cut down on CO2 emission from Brazil, it can
start with supporting its own industries transformation.
Brazil (Figure 1)
Emission limit: Reduce 37% and 43% from 2005 levels by
2025 and 2030.
President announced Brazil’s aim to achieve net zero by
2050 but have not formalized.

Costa Rica (Leading)

Emission limit: 9.4 MtCo2 by 2030 incl. LULUCF. Reduce
emissions by 25% from 2012.
Carbon neutrality by 2050. 0 MtCO2e by 2050 incl.
LULUCF.

Argentina(Struggling)
Emission limit: 359 MtCO2 by 2030 incl. LULUCF. This
new target is 26% below Argentina’s previous NDC target.
Carbon neutrality by 2050. Argentina will present long-
term strategy, incl. the goal of carbon neutrality by 2050, Figure 1
at COP26.

POLICIES & ACTION

Brazil
Renewables: High renewable share, which will represent
47% of the energy mix in 2027, is enabled by the large
shares of hydro in power generation and bioenergy in
transport.

Costa Rica
National Program for Carbon Neutrality (since 2012)
Domestic carbon market
Energy: To sustain 100% of electricity generated from
renewables (mainly from hydropower) by 2021.
Forests: Establishing a carbon trading mechanism
Argentina
National Plan for the Restauration of Native Forests
passed, seeking to restore 20 million hectares of native
forest per year by 2030.
Established Program for Climate Smart Agriculture and
Program for Good Agricultural Practices in Fruit and
Vegetable Products.

Second, for individual action. We should enhance
afforestation in Brazil because Brazil has the highest
deforestation around the world. (Figure 2)
Also, we can film a documentary to raise the attention
toward the deforestation in Brazil, since making a
documentary of the deforestation and spreading it worldwide
can activate the worldwide influencers. In conclusion, we
think that people should pay more attention on the issue of
deforestation, with each of us putting efforts in. It is believed
that the environment shall be protected through our
dedication.
