Brazil sells exploration rights to oil blocks near Amazon river mouth
Brazil sold exploration rights to 19 oil and gas blocks near the mouth of the Amazon river Tuesday, at the start of an auction slammed by environmentalists months before the country is to host the COP30 climate summit. Two consortiums -- one comprising Brazil's state-owned Petrobras and US giant ExxonMobil, the other US multinational Chevron and China's CNPC -- spent $153 million on the rights to 19 of 47 deepwater blocks on offer in an area considered vulnerable to environmental harm. They are among 172 oil blocks, most of them offshore, placed on auction Tuesday, with some 30 companies registered to take part. Shortly after opening, rights to the first 19 blocks were snatched up as dozens of protesters gathered outside under a banner reading: "Stop the doomsday auctions." Green groups have expressed particular concern over the 47 Atlantic exploration blocks in an area near the mouth of the Amazon River that flows through the world's largest carbon-capturing tropical rainforest. If exploited, the 172 blocks would emit some 11.1 billion tons of CO2 equivalent into the atmosphere, according to Brazil's ClimaInfo research institute -- undermining the country's target to become a net zero emitter of planet-warming greenhouse gases. Already Latin America's biggest oil and gas producer, Brazil is seeking to increase production from 4.68 million to 5.3 million barrels per day by 2030. Under the 2015 Paris climate agreements, Brazil has pledged to reduce its emissions to 1.2 billion tons of CO2 equivalent by 2030, and to reach neutrality by 2050 -- meaning emissions do not exceed the amount captured, by forests for example. - 'Cannot ignore it' - Leftist President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, seeking to position himself as a leader in the fight against climate change, nevertheless supports the auction. "If this wealth exists, we cannot ignore it, as it will help us to make the energy transition and secure funds to preserve our forests," he declared in February. "We must act responsibly. I do not want oil exploration to cause any harm to the environment," he added. The Climate Action Tracker, which measures governments' actions, has said Brazil "is not on track to reach either its 2025 target or its 2030" and the country "needs to peak and rapidly decrease emissions" to achieve its contribution to the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 Fahrenheit). "Opening new frontiers for exploration in fragile ecosystems increases the risk of environmental disasters and heightens threats to... marine biodiversity," Greenpeace Brazil's Mariana Andrade told AFP. The auction went ahead despite Brazil's Federal Public Ministry, an independent rights-monitoring body set up under the Brazilian constitution, calling for it to be suspended pending "adequate studies" on the potential impact of exploration. Petrobras is awaiting a license from environment oversight body Ibama to begin a mega oil exploration project for which it obtained a concession in 2013 in the same area. Brazil will host the COP30 UN climate conference in November in the Amazonian city of Belem. "Brazil is missing an opportunity to be a leader in decarbonization and environmental protection," said Suely Araujo, a former president of Ibama and coordinator of the Climate Observatory NGO. "The government clearly expresses its intent to increase oil production," she said in a statement. lg/tmo/mlr/ksb

Early Prime Day deals include $100 off the GoPro Hero 13 Black
It's that time of year again. Amazon Prime Day will rain deals upon the world on July 8 , but some companies have already begun slashing prices. For instance, the iconic GoPro Hero 13 Black action camera is currently on sale for $329 , which is a discount of over $100 . That's not a record-low price, but it's close. This model topped our list of the best action cameras , and for good reason. It's a near-perfect device with plenty of bells and whistles . This is the most versatile Hero camera the company has ever made, thanks to a new family of modular lenses. It can shoot up to 5.3K, with 2X optical zoom and a photo resolution of 27MP. It also features a larger battery than previous iterations, which allows for around 90 minutes of continuous shooting in 4K and 30FPS. It's waterproof up to 10 millimeters and can be operated via voice control. The full-color front screen makes it easy to review footage without having to upload anything to the computer. There's no internal storage, which is something of a bummer, but the camera can accommodate microSD cards. We did say it offers the "best image quality in its class" but that doesn't apply to low-light conditions. If you shoot primarily in low light, consider the DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro instead .

Disney, Amazon Expand Advertising Partnership
Disney and Amazon are teaming up to expand opportunities for advertisers, integrating the entertainment giant's Real-Time Ad Exchange with the tech giant's demand-side platform (DSP). The partnership, which was announced during Cannes Lions, will give buyers direct access to Disney+, ESPN and Hulu, as well as access to data from both companies for more precise targeting and efficient outcomes. For example, a pet food brand could reach viewers who both consume Disney content and have shown interest in pet products on Amazon. 'By building a direct path connecting Amazon's commerce insights to the full scale of Disney's streaming ecosystem, we're enabling greater accessibility to inventory and audience signals that translate into meaningful results for advertisers leveraging Amazon DSP,' Disney Advertising vice president of programmatic sales Matt Barnes said in a statement. Disney will begin implementing this expanded access with select advertisers in the coming months. Additionally, Disney+ inventory is now available through Amazon DSP in France, Germany, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom. 'This collaboration with Disney represents a significant leap forward in advertising effectiveness,' Amazon DSP vice president Kelly MacLean added. 'We're breaking down traditional barriers between content and commerce signals, allowing advertisers to deliver more meaningful experiences to viewers. By connecting Disney's premium content with Amazon's deep consumer understanding, we're creating advertising that works better for everyone — brands reach the right audiences, publishers maximize their inventory value and viewers see more relevant ads.' The agreement comes as Disney reaches a monthly ad-supported audience of 164 million users across Disney+, ESPN+ and Hulu, while Prime Video has surpassed 130 million ad-supported users in the U.S. When combining Prime Video with Amazon's other owned and operated entertainment properties such as Twitch, MGM Studios, Wondery and Amazon Music, the tech giant's entertainment portfolio reaches an average monthly ad-supported audience of more than 300 million. The post Disney, Amazon Expand Advertising Partnership appeared first on TheWrap.
