Brazil offers free cruise cabins as poorer nations struggle for rooms at COP30

As of October 31, 149 countries had confirmed lodging, while 37 were still negotiating, the Brazilian government said.

Dozens of countries have yet to secure accommodation for their delegations at the COP30 climate summit just a week before it opens, with host Brazil offering free cabins on cruise ships to poorer nations in a last-minute bid to ensure they can attend.
