.@JonStewart is returning to the @TheDailyShow? We might make it, yall.

[Indigenous Environmental Network @IENearth]

A system like the UNFCCC doesn’t understand/want to understand our value systems, cosmovisions, & worldviews as Indigenous Peoples. While we are disappointed by the outcomes of #COP28, we remain vigilant & will not compromise upholding our values for Mother Earth & Father Sky.

[Katie Foster @EveryonesEarth]

The current #ClimateTrajectory pushes us past multiple #TippingPoints. When millions are displaced, food systems fail, and financial markets collapse due to the implosion of insurance orgs, people won't buy your products.

[Katie Foster @EveryonesEarth]

What COP negotiators fail to realize is that our current trajectory means there is no business as usual. Increasing warming rates are baked in. Without immediate action the future grows more extreme & uncertain. #YouCantSellOilToAWorldOnFire @COP28_UAE @UNFCCC #ClimateSci #COP28

[Katie Foster @EveryonesEarth]

We need clear action plans to raise ambition & meet commitments. What are the priorities, low hanging fruit & innovation areas? What are the co-benefits, risks & trade-offs? How can we work together? [3/3]

[Katie Foster @EveryonesEarth]

Why is the #GlobalStocktake @COP28_UAE so important?
It's the year of #ClimateImplementation and #Accountability. @UNFCCC #COP28 [thread]

[Katie Foster @EveryonesEarth]

Most countries are far behind on their commitments ("#NDCs"). Island and lowlying countries are facing an existential crisis. Around the world, record floods, fires, droughts, storms & heat mean we have entered an age of unpredictability [2/3]

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

I have come back to #COP28, because we are on the brink of climate disaster & this conference must mark a turning point.

I am here to renew my urgent appeal to leaders:

Recommit to the 1.5°C warming limit.

End the fossil fuel age.

Deliver climate justice.

Make #COP28 count.

[Dave Jones @CleanPowerDave]

If we don't get a fossil phaseout agreement, we know why. The letter:

[Katie Foster @EveryonesEarth]

How is the #climate changing? Warming is highest at: 1. POLES melting ice caps, speeding sea level rise 2. WINTER increasing vector-borne diseases & agricultural pests 3. NIGHT stressing health of people, plants & animals in hot environments, who need respite
@COP28_UAE @UNFCCC

[Katie Foster @EveryonesEarth]

Dangerous #climate #FeedbackLoops already started: 1. Permafrost melt releases methane 2. Drought fueled wildfires release GHGs
3. Smoke darkens ice caps, accelerating melt 4. Rainforest deforestation causes drought & fires 5. Hotter temps = more AC & CFCs #ClimateScience #COP28

[Katie Foster @EveryonesEarth]

Let's not lose sight of #ClimatePriorities @COP28_UAE
ASAP: Replace FF w renewables, electric & accessible transit
QUICK FIXES: methane leaks, building efficiency, high-warming refrigerants
INNOVATE: electric manufact., low-carbon building, carbon pos. ag and forestry #COP28

[Romain Ioualalen @Rlalen]

Sitting in tonight's the GST negotiations on fossil fuel phase out #COP28.

Here is what countries are saying, using normal human language, a thread 👇

[Katie Foster @EveryonesEarth]

.@NetZeroTracker's impressive database of #climate pledges is incredibly useful, especially in the lead up to the #globalstocktake of #carbonemissions at #COP28 this year.

[Rob Majteles @RobMajteles]

Wow, awesome tool from ⁦@NetZeroTracker⁩: free and robust, use it.

We have a problem, and it needs to be solved as soon as possible.

[Katie Foster @EveryonesEarth]

The #USSenate's recent ratification of the #KigaliAmendment is a big deal - #HFCs have an outsized impact on #globalwarming and phasing them out is the low-hanging fruit of #climateaction.
