🔥🔥Today 🇺🇳Human Rights Council #HRC47 adopted with overwhelming support a resolution on #HumanRights & Climate.
This paves way for continuation of OHCHR & Council’s work on climate - but this fails to constitute a step change in Council’s response to climate crisis
A thread🧵👇 Image
2/ All #HumanRights institutions recognize that climate crisis poses systematic threat to enjoyment of human rights. UN Human Rights Council has adopted 11 resolutions on the issue. Yet these do too little to orchestrate proper response matching the scale & urgency of the crisis Image
3/ The resolution, tabled by Bangladesh, Philippines & Viet Nam, was adopted today after all hostile amendments put forward by Russia were rejected. ALL other states voted in favour of the resolution demonstrating that consensus remains (Russia only abstained but did not oppose) Image
