I'm in Bonn until Friday, come say hi if you want to chat methane and fossil fuels!

[EIA Climate Campaign @EIAClimateUK_EU]

EIA is at the #BonnClimateConference to push for swift action on #methane and #fossilfuels.

#SB60 sets the stage for #COP29, focusing on implementing previous agreements. Key topics include climate finance, a just transition from fossil fuels, and adaptation strategies.

Thank you @CCACoalition for the opportunity to showcase our call for strengthened governance on methane finance.

Moving from pledge to action requires sustained support for developing countries, who represent the vast majority of signatories.

[EIA Climate Campaign @EIAClimateUK_EU]

Yesterday, EIA intervened at the @CCACoalition Ministerial Meeting calling for the creation of a dedicated fund for methane, to ensure that developing countries have access to stable and predictable funding to implement the Global Methane Pledge.

Full intervention coming soon.

[Sophie Geoghegan @sgeoghs]

[Kim O’Dowd @KimODowd9]

After a long two-year process, EU policy makers have reached an agreement on the Methane Regulation!

A pivotal win for tackling this climate super pollutant but the rules on imports have fallen short reducing overall impact of the regulation.

EIA joined 90 organisations to call on @RishiSunak to deliver on its promises to provide £11.6bn in climate finance.

The UK has a historical responsibility to address the harm caused by cliamte change and to play a leading role in financing a global just and equitable transition
