Week one in your new job, Yvette Cooper — so we stopped by to say hi 👋
But our projections carry a deadly serious message: 260,000 civilians are trapped and starving in El Fasher, Sudan.
Use your power. Pick up the phone. Call the UAE’s @mohamedbinzayed — he could stop the slaughter.
Safe passage for civilians now.
Tag @YvetteCooperMP @FCDOGovUK to make sure they get our message!

Every fraction of a degree matters.
Every day matters.
Limiting global temperature rise is still possible. In 2025, countries must deliver bold, concrete & urgent #ClimateAction.

This is it: we are on the brink of stopping new oil and gas drilling for good. The government has paused approving new fields while it asks the public, what we think should happen. The gov stands on the side of people over oil and gas bosses. Sign here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/have…

Yesterday, @COP29_AZ launched its #HydrogenDeclaration.
But, pitching #Hydrogen as a climate solution is profoundly misleading - the vast majority of hydrogen is made using the polluting fossil fuels that are at the root of the climate crisis!

On today’s thematic day, Energy and Peace were the focus at #COP29, with strong commitments that aim at building a strong foundation to measure progress, and foster a sense of shared responsibility and urgency across all sectors of society. #COP29 #COP29Azerbaijan #COP29Delivers

Last week, the #COP29 Presidency launched a Hydrogen Declaration that endorses 'low-carbon' hydrogen, code for 'blue' hydrogen made from gas using CCS. 🧵 x.com/COP29_AZ/statu…

The OECD is moving and Korea risks being completely isolated. Almost every negotiating country is moving towards securing restrictions on fossil fuel finance. Will
@President_KR support a renewable energy future, or will Korea stand alone?

In September, it was revealed that Korea’s OECD negotiating position is to oppose any fossil fuel restrictions. @MOTIEKoreaEng
@moefkorea is the last obstacle to a historic deal.

Korea is the second largest provider of international public finance for fossil fuels, investing an average of USD 10 billion per year in overseas fossil projects. They are the world's largest provider of fossil fuel finance yet to make a commitment to stop fossil fuel financing.

🇺🇸 The US is joining 🇪🇺 🇬🇧🇨🇦🇦🇺🇳🇴 in forging a deal at the @OECD to end $41 billion/yr in public finance for fossil fuels.
🇰🇷Korea is now the biggest obstacle to a deal. Talks started TODAY in Paris - protesters were waiting.
@moefkorea_eng - don't block a clean energy future.

3/4 Why it matters: Like Obama's 2015 OECD coal finance ban that survived Trump's first term, this deal could create permanent climate guardrails. As Biden's climate legacy faces uncertainty, this intl commitment would stand.

2/4 At stake: A European proposal to expand existing coal finance restrictions to cover oil & gas projects. Deal would fulfill Biden's pledge to end international carbon-intensive energy funding. @SenMarkey: "Biden should finish it off."
