Hello Bluesky followers. I am starting a ten-day talking-to-camera challenge to overcome my fear of speaking confidently to a camera, without using 'ums', 'ers', and 'likes'. Here's day one for you. You'll be my accountability by the way!!!!

Daily Dispatch — COP30, Belém — 22 November 2025 — The Gavel Fell, the Drama Didn’t COP30: The Gavel Drop and the Sugar Crash

COP30 closed with a gavel, a gasp and a diplomatic sugar crash. The fossil-fuel phase-out disappeared, Russia took a swing at Latin America, and Argentina hit back hard.

My final dispatch from Belém sheds light on what really happened in the room.

Daily Dispatch — COP30, Belém — 21 November 2025 — So Much for “The Final Day” The Camaraderie’s Gone, the Clock’s Ticking, and Everyone’s Sweating

#COP30 called itself the “People’s COP” — and the real momentum came from women, Indigenous leaders and frontline communities who made the negotiations impossible to ignore.

Daily Dispatch — COP30, Belém — 20 November 2025 COP30 got spicy, and not in the culinary sense.

COP30 took a dramatic turn yesterday when a Blue Zone pavilion caught fire, prompting an evacuation that nobody had planned for.

The official line says “contained quickly”. The unofficial version? I wrote the inside recap of the day COP30 went off-script.

Daily Dispatch — COP30, Belém — 19 November 2025 As leaders’ postures and pledges stall, the streets of Belém are writing a bolder script.

Day 9 at COP30 blurred the line between the official agenda and the real one. Lula made his big return, negotiators stalled on the usual sticking points, and outside, protesters delivered a far more direct message. Belém feels like a summit being written in two languages at once.

Daily Dispatch — COP30, Belém — 18 November 2025 Belém Turns Up the Pressure and Down the Patience.

COP30 in Belém went off-script today. Midnight sessions that solved nothing, a Blue Zone breach that said everything, and a city making it very clear who actually lives with the consequences. The Amazon isn’t waiting for diplomats to catch up.
