“We tend to forget, that the 💲100bn [of #ClimateFinace] is an arbitrary figure, that is very far from the needs actually required.” @WAKAEgypt via @WRIClimate on the release of the #IPCC#AR6 WGII report and its #LossAndDamage implications.
“People have to feel that no community will be left behind, only then will they commit to their NDCs and be willing to make sacrifices.” @WAKAEgypt via @WRIClimate on the release of the #IPCC#AR6 WGII report and the #Adaptation and #LossAndDamage implications.
“We can only move forward successfully if we realize and cultivate this sense of trust.” - @WAKAEgypt #LossAndDamage#COP27

"🏴 broke a taboo at #COP26 by committing for the 1st time ever funding to address #LossAndDamage. Wallonia and philanthropies followed suit. We need to keep working to ensure the issue continues to move up the climate agenda" says @NicolaSturgeon 💪💪🏽💪🏿#PayUp4LossAndDamage
“The [IPCC] report gives us a view of the future, of where we are going. With every degree of global warming, we are going to see losses and damages escalate in both human and natural systems.” Debra Roberts of @IPCC_CH. #LossAndDamage
At the #COP26, the leaders of Estonia, Tanzania and Bangladesh were the first to sign the Glasgow Women’s Leadership statement, calling for countries to support the leadership of women and girls on climate action at all levels of society and politics. Continue... #IWD2022#CSW66
#IWD2022 theme “ Gender equality today for a sustainable tomorrow”, calls for recognition of the contribution of women and girls around the world, who are leading the charge on climate change adaptation, mitigation, and response, to build a more sustainable future for all.
#CSW66 is yet another opportunity to call all climate actions to recognize the differentiated impact of climate change by age, gender, disability and location. And ensure women's and girls’ voice, agency & their full and effective participation in leadership. #IWD2022
#ClimateCrisis has no borders and affects us all. It especially hurts those in poorer countries, which are also the countries that contribute the least to it. The richest 1% produce twice as much carbon emissions as the poorest half of the world’s population. #UprootTheSystem
We are in the loss & Damage era!
Extreme weather, drought and rising seas are now forcing people out of their livelihoods and their homes, and recovering from these disasters is more and more difficult. #COP26#UprootTheSystem
The group wants all countries to agree on radical steps to avoid "climate catastrophe" at the upcoming #COP26.
Green campaigners are urging a postponement of the gathering, citing problems with vaccines for delegates.
@TheCVF says the event is critical and cannot wait.
@TheCVF member states insist the meeting must go ahead in person and are calling for support and "facilitated access" to ensure inclusive participation. Progress on climate change has stalled and #COP26 should move forward with what it terms a "climate emergency pact".
