At the COP30 climate summit in Belém, Brazil, Spanish President Pedro Sánchez stated that climate change has claimed over 20,000 lives in Spain in the past five years, citing the DANA floods in Valencia that killed 229 people. Sánchez advocates for green transition as an engine of growth and calls for elections in the Valencian Community to break the 'climate denialist majority'. He also announces higher taxes on premium flights and a 45 million euro contribution to climate agencies.

The proposal follows recent controversies involving PP leaders like Ayuso and Almeida.
