“Surely, in the light of history, it is more intelligent to hope rather than to fear, to try rather than not to try.

For one thing we know beyond all doubt: Nothing has ever been achieved by the person who says, ‘It can’t be done’.”

This #HumanRightsDay, I call for urgent action to protect #OurRightsOurFuture - right now. Human rights are not just ideals for some - they are justice for all. They are the foundation of our shared existence & the measure of our humanity. Protecting them is protecting ourselves.

The Hearings at #ICJ are a crucial stepping stone to #accountability and #climatejustice.

[The Elders @TheElders]

#ICJ hearings opened today to clarify what countries are legally required to do to fight #ClimateChange.

A record number of countries are involved, and a strong decision could mark a turning point for climate justice.

Hello @lulaoficial, Brazil is the host country of #COP30. We need your leadership to influence other countries to show climate ambition – end fossil fuels, scale up renewables. Be the climate leader we need before it’s too late! https://t.co/jrShTbo9Ed

[The Elders @TheElders]

Mary Robinson calls out the shortcomings of the final COP29 agreement in Baku.

Full quote ⬇️

COP29 in Baku has been one of the most difficult COPs I can remember. It came very close to failure and it has ended with a disappointing deal. But it is a deal the world can build on in 2025. The Paris Agreement is alive, and we are making progress – just not fast enough.

The $300 billion per year committed by 2035 by rich countries at COP29 falls $90 billion short of the amount needed to implement the Paris Agreement. This is nowhere near enough to support the developing countries that have not caused the climate crisis yet are experiencing its worst impacts. But the intention in the deal to generate at least $1.3 trillion from a wider range of sources is right. This is an investment, not a hand-out.

Raising $1.3 trillion per year will require new sources of finance from global solidarity levies, more ambition from multilateral development banks, and increased efforts to mobilise private investment. It also matters where the money goes. The poorest and most vulnerable countries are not getting enough, and we need better access for women, indigenous peoples and local communities.

COP29 was weak in transitioning away from fossil fuels. Oil-rich countries must see that their efforts to delay the inevitable will fail. The green energy transition has gained unstoppable momentum, driven by competitive prices and market demand.

It is clear that the COP process is in need of reform to make it easier for decisions to be taken, implemented, and monitored. We need actions, not more words. With strong leadership from Brazil, we have a chance to speed up the progress needed before COP30 in Belém. G20 countries in particular must step up by committing to both mobilise more climate finance and quicker reductions in emissions. Let’s not squander the short time we have.

Later is too late.

The urgency of addressing the impact of climate change on many low income countries and the finance needed for adaptation and loss and damage remains elusive. @IISD_news @UNFCCC

#COP29 in Baku closed with a new finance goal to help countries to protect their people and economies against climate disasters, and share in the vast benefits of the clean energy boom. 💪 🌍

WHERE ARE THE WOMEN?

Only 8 out of 78 world leaders are women, that is 10.2%! Women leaders are vastly outnumbered #COP29Baku – as usual. Women are leading on the front lines of climate crises, yet they’re not represented at the decision-making tables.
