​The United Kingdom was pleased to see Brazil reaffirm their commitment to the Paris Agreement at the G20, supporting vital international cooperation on climate change. We regularly engage with the Brazilian Government on many environmental issues and are committed to working together to deliver low carbon growth. Furthermore, we have invested over £120 million in International Climate Programmes which will help limit deforestation, prevent forest fires, implement the Forestry Code, and promote sustainable land use.
