Great meeting with young climate leaders in Brazil today about the important role they play in driving progress on #ClimateAction , including meaningful participation in the preparation and implementation of national climate and energy transition plans. #youth2023 #NDC

This is bonkers!
Why should taxpayers anywhere pay anything to subsidize the dirtiest and most destructive businesses on Earth?
Those businesses are major contributors to the climate crisis and air pollution that kills millions of people every year.
Economics is upside-down!

This round of #NDCs , especially those from the #G20 , must show credible transition pathways away from fossil fuels and how each nation will contribute to the global goals on renewables and energy efficiency agreed at COP 28. #climateAction /2

“It’s long past time for the fossil fuel industry’s influence over academic research to be scrutinised.

We need integrity in academic research to develop #climate solutions we are all depending on.” - Ben Franta

The fighting in Gaza must end now.

The hostages must be released now.

And we must not lose sight of the big picture.

A lasting end to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict can only come through a two-State solution.

The Security Council just approved a long-awaited resolution on Gaza, demanding an immediate ceasefire, and the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages.

This resolution must be implemented. Failure would be unforgivable.

The UN Security Council has adopted a resolution demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and the immediate, unconditional release of all hostages.

news.un.org/en/story/2024/…

Nothing justifies the horrific attacks by Hamas.

Nothing justifies the collective punishment of the Palestinian people.
‌
It's time for a humanitarian ceasefire, a commitment by Israel for unfettered access for humanitarian goods throughout Gaza, and the release of all hostages.

Horror & starvation stalk the people of Gaza.

Any further onslaught will make everything worse. Worse for Palestinian civilians, for the hostages, for all people of the region.

It’s more than time for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire & the immediate release of all hostages.

As World Meteorological Organization say, the #StateOfClimate gives new meaning to the phrase “off the charts”

This past decade was the hottest on record. The result of this will be even more droughts, deadly heatwaves, failed crops & nature loss

We cannot allow this to be our new normal. We must act. Now.
