"...We are on the final day of #COP29 and there is still no headline figure. "Developing countries are being forced to accept a deal that isn't going to get the job done - they have to be prepared to walk away if the offer doesn't improve."

6/ @MohAdow, @PowerShftAfrica: "Developing countries have put their number on the table that would help them adapt to the climate crisis, but the rich world continues to avoid putting forward numbers that would respond to the climate crisis...."

5/ @Liane_boell Schalatek: “Instead of paying for their responsibility, historic polluters are asking others to pay for the damage they have caused. There are no finance numbers on the table, and no human rights or gender commitments. Feminists demand system change.”

4/ @BertDeWel @ITUC: "We are being taken hostage with no progress because there is no money on the table. "We haven't even been able to talk about scaling up the implementation of the Just Transition Work Programme - and thats a wasted COP."

3/ "...we challenge the Global South to stand firm and hold the line. We have just hours left, but it's not a foregone conclusion. "Let's fight to the very end."

2/ @lnacpil APMDD: “We can’t understand how rich countries call themselves climate champions yet refuse to put a climate finance goal on the table. We are not going to accept a bad deal - it's preferable to fight for another deal than to be locked into a very bad deal..."

1/ 🚨 No deal is better than a bad deal. 🚨 As #COP29 nears its end, a packed CAN press conference heard how civil society is holding the line. The stakes? Survival, justice, and humanity’s future. Here’s why we’re fighting till the last hour. 🧵

🔑Join us for an event in which we analyze the linkages between care, climate and gender within the context of a just transition, happening soon! 📆 20.11. at 11:30 am 📍Side event room 7

Protect VIP joins the voices of several civil service organizations, environment advocates, church leaders, fisherfolk groups, and youth, to urge international financiers to #StopFundingSanMiguel!

A fisherman from Batangas, a province south of the Philippine capital, flew thousands of miles away from home on his own to personally call on European banks to divest from environmentally destructive fossil fuel projects in his country.

The #IEAMinisterial has failed to champion any voices from the climate or wider civil society movements for the multiple panels taking place over the 3⃣ days. Despite leaders acknowledging that without massive public support, a #JustEnergyTransition will simply not happen.
