As one of the first @hlcchampions, congratulations to @TopNigel & especially to @gmunozabogabir for his 3 years of hard work to raise ambition and the credibility of real economy pledges. We can’t deliver Paris without this action! #RaceToZero #COP26 1/5
Your drive & energy has brought us the #RaceToZero –growing since Madrid – #RaceToResilience & #GFANZ I fully support the plans to continuously improve the Marrakech Partnership (MPGCA). The next 5 years of the MPGCA must accelerate exponential change to keep 1.5C in sight. 2/5
Critical these plans include clear expectations for credible, transparent, fair, science-based (incl pre-2030 action) and independently accountable net zero targets, including considering the outputs of @antonioguterres Expert Review Group on non-state action 3/5
MPGCA must also continue to strengthen collaboration with countries and regionalise work with all parts of society to build action and urgent ambition. This is essential for the legitimacy and effectiveness of the MPGCA. 4/5
I look forward to seeing this work grow & more and more voluntary commitments included into next wave of NDCs next year. It will I’m sure inspire new #COP27 hosts #Egypt and #COP28 #UAE 5/5

Paris is working. Despite the COVID-19 crisis, we have accelerated action, the COP has responded to the IPCC’s call to close the gap towards 1.5, and coal is in the text. But there is a lot more to do. #COP26 1/6
The commitments & claims of the first week on finance, forests, end of public finance for fossil fuel, methane and cars must now be translated into real policy and incorporated in the new NDCs that has to be delivered by 2022. And Oil and gas production still to be addressed. 2/6
Greenwashing is the new climate denial & we have seen too much at play in this COP. We must strengthen accountability mechanisms for net-zero going forward. 3/6

Le rapport du GIEC est clair : les températures augmentent dangereusement, se rapprochant de la barre des 1,5°.
On me demande souvent si je panique, ou si je perds espoir. Non. Je me bats. Nous nous battons.
#GIEC 1/5
Chaque dixième de degré compte. La différence entre 1,5° et 2° est dramatique.
Nous pouvons toujours rester sous les 1,5° de réchauffement.
Mais il faut agir maintenant.
#GIEC 2/5
Les promesses faites par les Etats nous mènent à un réchauffement de 2,4° (Climate Action Tracker). La COP26 nous montrera les Etats qui agissent pour nous protéger, et ceux qui délaissent leurs engagements.

The new IPCC report could not be clearer. Global temperatures are rising dangerously close to the 1.5°C limit of the Paris Agreement.
#IPCC 1/4
I am often asked if I am panicking or losing hope. I am not. Instead, I am fighting, we are fighting, because every fraction of a degree matters. We can still stay within 1.5°C, but world leaders need to act now.
#IPCC 2/4
Pledges made so far under the Paris Agreement would bring us to about 2.4°C according to Climate Action Tracker. Many countries are yet to submit climate targets. COP26 will be a clarifying moment: how serious are G20 countries about tackling the climate crisis?

Five years ago, I had barely slept for 2 weeks. Now I've recovered, and with the #Parisversaire today, I've been thinking about how we designed the #ParisAgreement – and how it is working today. A thread 1/16
We knew how big the task would be. We were all veterans of the UN negotiation process, and had lived through the trauma of #COP15 in Copenhagen. We knew we needed to take a new approach, one built on an integrated theory of human, organizational, and state behavior 2/16
The fundamental premise of the #ParisAgreement: it had to be a flexible legal framework, that could over time accommodate the changes in technologies, economies, & societies that would need to happen over the long-run for us to succeed & limit temperature rise 3/16

Five years ago today I was locked in negotiations… the #ParisAgreement on climate change was on a knife edge. We made it and yes, let's celebrate its 5th birthday - but let us also reflect on the challenges ahead as we tackle the #climatecrisis as a global community 1/8
The @UNEP #EmissionGap report is clear: despite the 4-7% decrease in CO2 emissions this year due to #COVID19 we are heading for a temperature rise in excess of 3°C this century 2/8
unep.org/news-and-stori…
Today’s new report @gcarbonproject underlines the urgency further: there’s around 8% of the carbon budget left - that means we have less than ten years at current emissions rates, if we want to limit global temperature rise to 1.5C. 3/8
