The World Summit on Energy Transition aims to promote a cross-cutting approach involving fundamental pillars for a just transition, such as decarbonization, energy efficiency, conscious consumption, public policies and justice, and carbon markets, all crucial elements to mitigate the effects of climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions in line with the Paris Agreement.
The transition to renewable energy sources is crucial in combating climate change, as emissions from fossil fuels are one of the biggest causes of global warming. Replacing these sources with clean alternatives can significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions while promoting a sustainable future.
However, this change requires investment in infrastructure, technological innovation and support from public policies that encourage the use of these new energies in an accessible and efficient way.
Practical actions to change energy sources in the context of climate change:
Energy efficiency is one of the fundamental pillars in the fight against climate change, as it involves using less energy to perform the same activities. By improving efficiency in the residential, industrial and transport sectors, we can reduce greenhouse gas emissions and conserve natural resources. This approach also brings economic benefits, reducing energy costs and stimulating technological innovation, as well as being a crucial element in the transition to a more sustainable energy system.
Practical actions to increase energy efficiency in the context of climate change:
Conscious consumption is a fundamental pillar in the fight against climate change, as it involves adopting habits that reduce the waste of energy and natural resources. By making more sustainable choices in our daily lives, we can reduce the demand for polluting energy sources and encourage ecological practices throughout the production chain.
This change in behavior not only reduces greenhouse gas emissions, but also promotes a culture of environmental responsibility essential for the energy transition and the preservation of the planet.
Practical actions to promote conscious consumption in the context of climate change:
Public policies are essential to drive the energy transition and tackle climate change, as they establish the guidelines and incentives needed to develop a low-carbon economy. Governments have a crucial role to play in creating regulations that encourage the use of renewable energy, energy efficiency and the adoption of clean technologies. In addition, effective policies can direct investment towards sustainable infrastructure and ensure social inclusion in this process, promoting a balance between economic growth, social protection and environmental preservation.
Practical actions to strengthen public policies in the context of climate change:
The carbon market is an important tool for mitigating climate change by assigning an economic value to greenhouse gas emissions. This mechanism allows companies that emit less carbon to sell their emission credits to those that need to offset their emissions, creating a financial incentive to reduce environmental impact. By limiting the total emissions allowed, the carbon market promotes the transition to cleaner and more efficient technologies, helping to achieve global emissions reduction targets and strengthen the commitment to sustainable development.
Practical actions to boost the carbon market in the context of climate change:

The government of Ceará, in partnership with the Global Institute for the Future of Tourism (GIFT), Winds for Future and Advanced Leadership Foundation, launched the World Summit on Energy Transition this Monday (22). The event is scheduled to take place on November 28 and 29 in Fortaleza.
The summit aims to be the main event on energy transition in Brazil, paving the way for the country’s leadership in global energy innovation.
Over the past ten years, the entities organizing the WORLD SUMMIT ON ENERGY TRANSITION have organized a series of international Summits in more than five countries and festivals aimed at different audiences and themes.
We organize summits in Spain, Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Portugal, the United States and other countries on topics always related to sustainability.
We organize the largest Latin American Festival of Innovation and Sustainability, attracting entrepreneurs and activists linked to environmental issues, artists and athletes (3 Guinness World Record achievements)
More than 21,000 people from all over the world have participated in our Summits and Festivals and become part of our international network.
We have had the privilege of working with Nobel Prize winners, heads of state and internationally acclaimed experts.
We have already trained more than a thousand young leaders at our events.
