About

Who We Are

The Brazil Climate Center (CBC) is a center for reflection and action (think-and-do tank), knowledge dissemination, elaboration of strategic actions, and engagement of society to combat the effects of climate change..

Strictly non-partisan, the CBC acts to influence Brazilian politics and power structures. It develops proposals, projects, strategies and actions, especially through articulation and political incidence at the subnational level and dialogue at the international level, in order to enable the transition to a carbon-neutral economy, through the full implementation of the Paris Agreement and, more specifically, of the Brazilian Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC). In its track record, it has been helping to set sectoral and regional NDC targets, raising its ambitions, building a long-term strategy with the goal of zero net greenhouse gas emissions by the middle of the 21st century, and designing robust adaptation actions at different levels.

Assessment, analysis of relevant data and information, articulation among multiple stakeholders, and dialogue in different national and international spheres are among CBC’s strategic capabilities, contributing to a unique contribution that combines reflection and action, theory and practice.

Alfredo Sirkis (1951-2020) was one of Brazil’s leading environmentalists and thinkers, with a long and successful career that ranged from politics to the third sector, to literature and journalism. He was one of the pioneers and protagonists of the environmental struggle in Brazil, standing out as one of the staunchest defenders of the decarbonization of the economy, already foreseeing that this would be the great challenge for humanity in the 21st century.

He manifested his activism early on: he was a student leader as a teenager and participated in the armed resistance against the Brazilian military dictatorship, which led him into exile for more than eight years. In politics, he was one of the founders of Green PartyHe was a four-term councilman, municipal secretary of urbanism, and president of the Instituto Municipal de Urbanismo Pereira Passos (IPP) from 2001 to 2006, in addition to being the creator of the Municipal Secretary of Environment in the city of Rio de Janeiro, also being its first holder, from 1993 to 1996.

From 2016 to 2019 he was the Executive Coordinator of the Brazilian Climate Change Forum, during which time he organized the campaign
Ratify Now!
which achieved the ratification of the Paris Agreement in record time by the Brazilian government.

An intellectual recognized for his transitions through diverse themes, he is the author of nine books. The work “Os Carbonários” (1980) received the Jabuti Award in 1981. His most recent work, “Decarbonaries” was released in 2020, with autobiographical features and as an unfolding of the work of 40 years before.
