At #Stockholm50, a huge diversity of voices called for concrete measures for a global #JustTransition, showing:

💪🏼how the climate movement is raising the bar of what real climate action looks like

🌍how the #FossilFuelTreaty campaign is gaining momentum

fossilfueltreaty.org/blog/stockholm…

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.

@alexraf, Global diretor of @fossilfueltreaty and @MaryMoeonoKolio, Pacific Climate Warriors sharing the main ideas on the fossil fuel world we want to build together: fossilfueltreaty.org/livestream

@alexraf

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

@alexraf

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 @PWooders @Jojo_Mehta @mpklang @harjeet11 @reconciliaction First idea is from @PWooders puts forward @beyondoilgas as a way to break the cycle with oil and gas.

Quebec is a member that sits on a large reserve of gas but in April they signed into law that it's illegal to exploit oil and gas on their territory.

@StockholmPlus50

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
