How much #climatefinance does China🇨🇳 provide & mobilize? New WRI analysis shows for 2013-2022 it was $45bn in total or $4.5bn/year. Honored to have been a reviewer for this important research & congrats to authors @Liu__Shuang et al. Check it out: https://t.co/H1VAtJXWT9

How can we achieve a balanced & effective global response to #climatechange when the #GlobalSouth is underrepresented in int'l #climate initiatives? Happy to have been a reviewer for this important piece of research & congrats to authors @mariovallejojd + Claudio Forner!

[WRI Climate @WRIClimate]

The Global South is underrepresented in intergovernmental climate initiatives. 🌍

Striking a balance between universal engagement and targeted efforts is crucial for maximizing the impact of climate mitigation initiatives. Read more: https://t.co/AvdFrJrFmT

Kudos to the amazing authors @PowerShftAfrica & @CCCD_AEFUNAI

Sweet Holy Jesus. 28 men 0 women to organize COP29 🤯. Calling Mary Robinson of @TheElders, there's another sultan-type we need you to have a word with

[Chukwumerije Okereke @chuks_okereke]

The wild celebration of the inclusion of "transitioning away from fosil fuel" in COP28 text is largely misplaced. While symbolical, it is political economy and NOT COP texts that will shape the action of states and companies. We need more than words to fight climate change.

Is #LossandDamage 'done and dusted' now that that the fund is operationalized? Far from it. My brilliant colleague @NateWarszawski breaks down where do we go from here on #LossandDamage at #COP28

[WRI Climate @WRIClimate]

Lest we forget: #1o5 in the #ParisAgreement is not a goal to achieve, but a threshold to avoid. The speed with which the planet has begun to flirt with 1.5C raises the alarm louder for more action & support on #mitigation #adaptation & #lossanddamage https://t.co/K2RcqObRGW

[World Resources Institute @WorldResources]

The Global Goal on Adaptation is a top priority for #COP28.

But is the pace of progress sufficient? What obstacles do nations need to overcome in these crucial final days? WRI's @GabSwaby lays it all out.

Loud round of applause for Colombia Environment Minister @susanamuhamad at #COP28, calling for a fossil fuel phase out, reiterating #1o5 is not a goal but a limit. As 5th largest coal exporter, Colombia needs to transition and economic system should change to support this 👏

[CAN EUROPE @CANEurope]

📢 Activists from all around the globe gather at #COP28 to #EndFossilFuels.

🆘️ The world is burning, and so is our chance of limiting temperature rise to 1.5°C.

✊🏼 We need a Full, Fast, Fair, Forever, Funded, and Feminist phase out of all fossil fuels.
