Conference of Parties

Pine Forest Media is an independent media organization accredited by the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). This accreditation enables on-the-ground reporting from inside the UN climate negotiations, while maintaining editorial independence and a science-first approach.

Our COP coverage focuses on how global climate decisions intersect with science, culture, and lived experience.

Belém, Amazônia

PFM’s COP reporting began at COP30 in Belém, Amazônia, where coverage centered the host city and region alongside the negotiations.

Reporting foregrounded:

• Local perspectives from Pará and the Amazon
• Ocean science and its growing role in climate negotiations
• The intersections of finance, governance, ecosystems, and climate justice
  
  

Belém established an editorial approach that moves between place and policy — treating COPs not only as negotiation sites, but as moments of visibility, power, and consequence.

Antalya, Türkiye

For COP31 in Antalya, Türkiye, Pine Forest Media aims to expand this approach.

The project is designed to bring together an international, interdisciplinary, and multilingual reporting cohort, including journalists, researchers, communicators, activists, and artists.

Editorial priorities include:

• Climate science and climate justice
• Regional and national contexts
• Civil society and grassroots perspectives beyond the Blue Zone
• How lived experience enters — or is excluded from — global negotiations

Coverage will connect negotiation language to the realities it shapes on the ground.
