Now is the time for action. We have spoken a lot, and we must walk the talk. The international community must heed the voice of specially affected countries like #Bangladesh.., @mbachelet. @MdShahriarAlam

@mbachelet @MdShahriarAlam @SaleemulHuq @saberhc @SohanBMYP @YouthNet4CC @MenEngage_SA @ejfoundation @YouthDeliver @UNHumanRights An open civic space is a crucial ingredient for youth to be able to play that driving role – a space where they can voice their opinions, be heard, and demand and insist on real change, said @mbachelet. @MdShahriarAlam

Young people are – quite rightly - influencing debates of national and international importance and prompting social change,... both here and around the world. They are demanding a seat at the table and holding governments and businesses to account, @mbachelet. @MdShahriarAlam

If the @UNFCCC is to still have any semblance of relevance, @Cop27P must adopt #LossAndDamage as a regular agenda item for all future COPs, starting with #COP27, writes @SaleemulHuq. @saberhc @ejfoundation @MenEngage @CAREClimate thedailystar.net/opinion/views/…

Loss and damage funding for those already affected by the #ClimateCrisis must be a key part of negotiations at #COP27. Climate justice should be at the heart of climate action.

Young people have become the main actors of the present and the future, to guarantee structural reform in the world system. The young leaders like @vanessa_vash,@mnyomb1,@mitzijonelle, @eve_chantel are an expression of those millions of voices, who want the best possible world.

@mbachelet @UNHumanRights @ejfoundation @YouthDeliver @SaleemulHuq @Laxman4GE @MenEngage @CAREClimate @SohanBMYP We must transform dominant systems into ones based on equality, collaboration, and care for all people and all species living on Earth. @mbachelet @UNHumanRights @YouthNet4CC

@mbachelet Understanding our ecological crisis exposes patriarchy, capitalism, colonialism, and toxic masculinities, as it becomes clear that systemic transformation is required for our survival. The current societal change does not place a high priority on caring. @mbachelet @UNHumanRights

The era of #LossAndDamage brought on by climate change has already begun, and its negative effects can be seen everywhere. The emerging human rights frontiers are related to climate justice! @mbachelet @UNHumanRights #COP27

In the voices of youths lie the tangible expressions of what it means to live now and in the future if no action is taken in a world plagued by #climatechange. Meet LDYC’s Carolina Oliveira who addressed the COP27 presidency by reflecting on #lossanddamge in Brazil:

Farmers in coastal Bangladesh are defaulting more on their loans due to climate change-driven storms destroying the farms they put up as collateral. More frequent storms are as much a threat to the country’s financial sector as to farming & environment. bit.ly/3pjZKOp

One in three young people feels competent in the skills needed to do jobs that tackle #Climate_Change. While young women feel less competent than young men. Latest global survey report: Young People and Green Skills: Preparing for a Sustainable Future cutt.ly/WXguPZR

The ecological collapse you thought might happen in your children or grandchildren’s lifetime is in fact happening right now! theguardian.com/environment/20…

Despite widespread suffering from climate impacts in #Bangladesh, just this year, the #Rampal Thermal Power Plant in Bagerhat will be generating electricity by October using coal from Indonesia.⤵️ We need to #EndFossilFinance now! ✊ @350 @GretaThunberg tbsnews.net/bangladesh/ene…
