Brazil’s state oil giant Petrobras has been cleared to drill near the mouth of the Amazon River, a move that threatens one of the planet’s most vital ecosystems. A ticking environmental time bomb. What will Lula say when he faces the world at COP30?

Great! In 20 years cows might burp & fart out 40% less methane! But cattle farming will still drive deforestation, pollute rivers, erode soil & kill off countless species. So, in 20 years we’ll have less windy cows - but not much else! The simpler solution… STOP FARMING COWS!

Cow burps have a big impact on global warming - but scientists think they've found a solution
Agriculture accounts for 10% of the UK's greenhouse gas emissions, with the country's nine million cows and calves a significant contributor.
