Climate Action Network International (CAN)@CANIntl

The people fighting on the frontlines of the climate crisis are missing from #COP29Baku - impacting the negotiations. There's a lot to mull over in today's ECO on how climate finance should be used to serve the needs of the people #PayUp 🔗read here - climatenetwork.org/resource/eco-5…

In case you missed it yesterday: #COP28 has been promoted as 'the most inclusive COP ever'... but it what they meant is that it's the most inclusive for fossil fuel lobbyists. Read the thread below — and read why we must #KickBigPollutersOut of @UNFCCC's climate negotiations ⬇️
Climate Action Network International (CAN)@CANIntl

⚡ BREAKING: A record breaking number of fossil fuel lobbyists are at #COP28. At least 2400 lobbyists are in Dubai to promote fossil fuels — almost a 400% increase from last year. 🧵thread below, which puts this shocking number into perspective:

Compared to what countries pledged in the Paris Agreement, every year, they spend about six times that amount to subsidize fossil fuel consumption, which in turn exacerbates climate change, toxic air pollution, inequality, inefficiency, and mounting debt. blogs.worldbank.org/voices/hiding-…

The fossil fuel industry is at the heart of the climate crisis. The problem is not simply fossil fuel emissions. It’s fossil fuels—period. Countries must progressively phase them out, moving to leave oil, coal & gas in the ground—and massively boost renewable investments.

At #WHA76 taking place this week there is a growing group of countries and CSOs calling for a Resolution on Climate Change and Health to be agreed next year. The resolution should call for healthy, sustainable diets, a fossil fuel phase out for clean air and health resilience.
Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus@DrTedros

The #WHA76 has begun! I am honoured to welcome Health Ministers from around the world to this historic World Health Assembly as we mark the 75th anniversary of @WHO. Together, we continue to work towards #HealthForAll, everywhere!
