Failures at #COP27:
❌ Inability to explicitly confront fossil fuels (indeed, oil & gas welcomed into the room by Egyptian Presidency).
❌ Carbon market loopholes will enable corporate greenwash.
❌ $100 billion commitment remains unmet, primarily due to shortfall from the US.

Successes at #COP27:
✅ Loss & damage fund focused on particularly vulnerable countries.
✅ Demand for MDBs to define a new vision & operational model equal to the climate crisis.
✅ Nuanced debate about responsibility & vulnerability beyond the developed/developing dichotomy.
