🌱 “Climate ambition and economic development are not competing priorities,” said @UNFCCC Executive Secretary @SimonStiell at the Net Zero Summit in Jakarta by @FPCIindo.

🇮🇩 Indonesia can lead Southeast Asia’s clean energy future — with bold plans, strong leadership, and the spirit of “gotong royong”.

It's encouraging to see that the EU and #China published a joint statement in this volatile geopolitical context. It gives reassurance that both major economies stay committed to addressing #climate under the Paris Agreement after Trump’s withdrawal.

Choose renewable energy if you want a thriving economy - investors and data prove it’s the right choice, says UN https://t.co/WaLjvMaBVe

4) Plan for just transitions with support, education & training; support low-income countries

5) Align trade/climate policy to unlock investment & help countries maximise value chains not just extract resources

6) Reform global finance architecture - cut debt, scale investment

"No price spikes from the sun, no embargoes from the wind."

Strong rallying cry from @antonioguterres to accelerate & better share the benefits from the clean energy transition that is already creating energy security, lowering costs, & building livelihoods around the world.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

The fossil fuel age is flailing & failing.

We're at the dawn of a new & clean energy era.

An era where cheap, abundant, renewable energy powers a world rich in economic opportunity.

We have the tools to power the future for humanity.

This is our moment of opportunity.

[@alexscottclimate.bsky.social @AlexScottLondon]

6 steps to power the future for humanity:

1) Plan a faster energy transition in national climate plans, NDCs due to the UN this year

2) Invest in resilient grids, distribution and storage infrastructure

3) Focus new energy demands from AI etc on renewable sources

[@alexscottclimate.bsky.social @AlexScottLondon]

So cool to see independent climate councils collaborating to share knowledge, create political leadership platforms, and support transparency and accountability.

Congrats on @climatecouncils new toolkit to support countries to create their own council.

Xi Jinping just made his first climate-focused, internation speech in several years. While he said little that is new in substance, Xi's speeches are always important signals of the leadership's priorities. 🧵

Blunt from @SwissRe. If you want to tackle #climate, take the transition seriously.

'Mitigating climate change requires the global real economy to transform. That’s one of the reasons why Swiss Re supports clients in the transition to a net-zero economy'

"Perceptions that fiscal constraints & public opinion prevent governments doing what is both necessary & in their interests are... a matter of political choice, not fact."

As the new US administration brings chaos to global cooperation and climate action, I'm making the leap out of here...

Hope to find you all over there.

Promising to see 🇬🇧 deploying diplomatic powers on the link btw climate & security

@DavidLammy @SenatorWong set to talk defence today in London.

Will the centrality of climate action & financing to the security challenges we face get more than words?

[Linda Kalcher @LindaCulture]

Canada published its 2035 climate target with an underwhelming 45-50% GHG reduction compared to 2005 (~23-30% compared to 1990).

This is a missed opportunity to put Canada on the modernisation and innovation path that could transform the economy away from #FossilFuels.

[@alexscottclimate.bsky.social @AlexScottLondon]

Be lured in by the headline.

Then feel the vital end of year hope we all need.

Yes we might be in a doom loop. Let’s use it to spark a virtuous spiral up 💪 https://t.co/HPt2SOcTfs
