The International Energy Agency’s annual World Energy Outlook 2021 (WEO2021) report is out today. Kudos to IEA for making it available free of charge this year (We hope they also do this for their energy data as well). Read on for some key takeaways! 👇#WEO2021
IEA’s report states that current “pledges cover less than 20% of the gap in emissions reductions that need to be closed by 2030 to keep a 1.5 °C path within reach.”  #WEO2021
It also states that the global average temperature rise in 2100 is held to around 2.1 °C above pre-industrial levels with no stabilization by 2100 under current pledges 🌡️ - though this is with some dubious policy choices such as overdependence on technologies like CCS. #WEO2021

Today, October 12, is an important day. Actually, what is submitted today could determine our collective future. Read on if you want to know more… 👇
The world’s most important climate change meeting is happening in November: the Conference of the Parties (COP26). Every year, since 1995, almost 200 countries meet to essentially decide what level of action is taken on climate change around the world. It’s a big deal!
In 2015 at COP21, 192 countries ratified the Paris Agreement, and agreed to make country-level emissions reductions in order to keep worldwide temperature rise under 1.5°C, which was the number identified by scientists to minimize the worst effects of climate change.

So, you might have noticed that the #IPCC just released a new #ClimateReport on the science of the climate crisis. It’s not pretty, but there’s some hope. Here’s a 🧵 to break it down for you, starting with the bad, then the ugly, then the good.
1. A few data points to start:
📈 CO2 concentration is the highest in TWO MILLION YEARS
🌡️The last decade was hotter than any period in 125,000 YEARS
🌊 Sea level rise is the fastest in 3000 YEARS
🧊Arctic ice level is the lowest level in 1000 YEARS
2. IPCC scientists say that it’s “indisputable” that human activities are causing climate change. And that almost all emissions of greenhouse gases come specifically from the extraction, transport and use of fossil fuels as well as agriculture and farm animals.

THREAD.

1/ This July, the people who control the budgets of the world’s 20 richest countries will decide how they spend trillions in public $$. They need to spend our money on a #JustRecovery. Find out what you can do: fal.cn/38MxF
2/The interrelated crises of wealth inequality, racism, and the climate crisis, were in place long before COVID-19, and now are being intensified. 350.org/pacific-faces-… #G20
3/ Yet, #G20 countries have acted directly against the Paris Agreement by providing at least USD 77 billion/year for fossil fuel projects through their public finance institutions. priceofoil.org/2020/05/27/g20…

We must all take time to understand the Central American refugee crisis as a climate issue connected to US military and economic policy.

350 Justice & Equity Manager @natycar74 spells out those links. 350.org/us-responsibil… #FamiliesBelongTogetherMarch #FamiliesBelongTogether
Many of the recent migrants detained at the U.S. southern border are from the "Dry Corridor" - a drought-prone region where climate change is creating massive food insecurity. #FamiliesBelongTogetherMarch

The US produces 5312 metric tons of carbon.

Guatemala, Nicaragua, El Salvador & Honduras only produce 30.7 metric tons - less than 1% of the U.S.

The Dry Corridor & refugee crisis are driven by the lack of US climate policy #FamiliesBelongTogetherMarch
