The summit saw calls for accelerated efforts against climate denial, but key emitters like the US, China, and India sent no high-level representatives. Separately, a tornado struck Paraná state, killing six and injuring hundreds. In sports, Oscar Piastri qualified third for the F1 sprint in São Paulo, with Lando Norris taking pole.
