Back to EpisodesColombia's Green Push: Santa Marta Summit
Description
Colombias Environment Minister, Irene Vélez Torres, is advocating for a swift transition from fossil fuels, citing global energy market instability and the Middle East conflict. Shes pushing for a radical green agenda ahead of a summit in Santa Marta, Colombia, from April 24-29, aiming to spark meaningful discussions on phasing out oil, gas, and coal. Despite Colombias reliance on fossil fuel exports, the country faces pressure to lead on climate action due to its role in protecting the Amazon. The summit aims to create a new political space for climate debate, with high expectations for its impact on COP31 in Turkey later this year.
