Description
This dataset contains all public posts collected from the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) that included the official hashtag #COP30noBrasil during the COP30 climate summit, between 10 and 21 November 2025. The data were retrieved using Tweet Binder and comprise a total of 1,139 interactions, including original posts, retweets and replies. For each entry, the dataset includes metadata describing user characteristics (such as verification status and follower–following ratio), content features (format, text, language), and interaction metrics (likes, reposts, replies). The dataset also includes derived analytical variables used in the associated research article. These include engagement, calculated as a percentage based on interaction metrics, and sentiment polarity, computed using the VADER (Valence Aware Dictionary and sEntiment Reasoner) Python library. The text fields were kept in their original languages, reflecting the multilingual nature of the conversation around COP30. This resource enables the examination of public discourse on climate negotiations, content diffusion dynamics, and the emotional tone of climate-related communication. It provides a structured and reusable dataset for researchers interested in climate communication, digital public spheres, social media analytics, and environmental politics.
