1/ The #FossilFuelTreaty places the claims of the most affected communities and therefore those of the indigenous peoples at the heart of its strategy in order to tackle the root cause of the #climatecrisis. Otherwise, as Nemonte Neuquino says, what are we talking about?
2/ During our #Stockholm50 pre-summit, Anoshka Violeta Irey Cameno also reaffirmed indigenous peoples' commitment to protect their #Amazon territories and their vision of development.
11/ 🛢#Stockholm50 was the first @unitednations conference to clearly recommended the “phase out of all fossil fuels” and to recognise the urgent need for “financial and technical support to realize a just transition.” 👏🏼 BUT...
12/ The #Stockholm50 outcome document is still largely insufficient. However, it is a significant step forward that gives us strong arguments to return to governments at COP 27: fossilfueltreaty.org/blog/stockholm…
13/🌎Join the #FossilFuelTreaty solidarity to put an end to the destructive fossil fuel system!
1/ @alexraf: We’ve heard across all of the panels that the risks of the FF industry are not only risks to our climate goals,we’ve heard about the ways that the FF industry risks our reliance with nature from communities in the Amazon facing continuing logic of the colonizers
2/ @alexraf: the risk of climate extraction is not only to the local community, it’s also to the overall structure of our political economy, and our culture.
@StockholmPlus50@mitzijonelle@xiyebastida@FarzanaJhumu@zuhairkowshik She adds that we need to tell the stories of the communities that are being affected. Everyone in the Global North need to advocate for those in the South who are being targeted by extraction activities.
1/ Mi Nemonte Nenquimo, soy una mujer Waorani, Amazonia del Ecuador. Gracias a la selva vivimos conexion y armonia con la naturaleza y queremos defenderla. Para eso, quiero compartir mi conocimiento
2/ Pero, con la "civilizacion", en la Amazonia vivimos una amenaza grande. La extraccion del petroleo causa la destruccion de nuestro territorio y si yo resisto y comparto mi conocimiento es para mi pueblo pero también para el mundo. Soy una mujer que resiste, una mujer guardiana
1/ Svitlana Romanko #StandWithUkraine: The war in Ukraine is not another war. Russia is a threat with high #FossilFuel resources that could be weaponized & used also against other countries.
The #FossilFuelTreaty provides the missing mechanism to phase-out fossil fuel and HOPE!
2/ Sylvie Ndongmo @WILPF, Cameroon: first of all, i am not in #Stockholm50 in person bec I could not get a visa. I was requested to travel to RDC or Nigeria to get a visa which is another example of inequalities and colonial power.
