Young generations are severely threatened by climate change. This raises important issues of solidarity and fairness across generations. We need to demand policies that safeguard the future of current young generations. https://t.co/X5UjdkO358

Here at #COP28 ready to perform my duties as a UN-Habitat Youth advisor. The leaders,the polluters have to be pushed to the beam for #ClimateAction

[Lauren MacDonald🌻 #StopRosebank @laurensunfl0wer]

This is everything that's wrong with these climate talks - rich world, self-proclaimed climate leaders like Norway tell the rest of world to slash emissions ... while expanding oil and gas production. #StopRosebank

[ParentsForFuture Global @parents4futureG]

At #COP28 Children & Youth Day we came together to show our strong determination to fight for all children & future generations.
Our actions are driven by our love.

[Our Kids' Climate @OurKidsClimate]

What do children want world leaders to do about the climate crisis?

We asked children from around the world to tell us. This is what they said.

#COP28 we hope you are listening! You need to put #KidsFirst! ❤️

We are supporting today's #GlobalClimateStrike to #EndFossilFuels. This demand is backed up by science! Read our support statement. @S4F_INTL @Fridays4future

[Adélaïde Charlier @adelaidecharli2]

Fossil fuel industry has lied, weakened & sabotaged climate action for decades.
Today, @EU_Commission wants to name an ex Shell employee to lead EU's climate agenda. See the problem?

[Plant-Based Universities @plantbasedunis]

BREAKING: 850+ Academics & Notables Call For Plant-Based Universities

An open letter signed by the likes of @ChrisGPackham has just been released. The letter is calling on universities to transition to 100% plant-based catering in order to tackle the climate and nature crises.

[Zero Hour @zero-hour.bsky.social @zerohour_uk]

Pollution from cars and vans costs £6 billion per year in health damages.

Swapping 1 in 4 car journeys in urban areas for walking or cycling could save over £1.1 billion in health damage costs per year.

Switching 1 million cars from diesel to electric would save more than £360 million per year in health costs from local air pollution.

Perhaps someone could send @rishisunak a copy of @globalactplan’s report? https://t.co/8prDj5QakU #airpollution #ULEZ #ULEZexpansion

[Rt Hon Chris Skidmore @CSkidmoreUK]

My comment on today’s announcement

[Professor Mark Maslin 👋 𝕏 @ProfMarkMaslin]

@DrChrisParry Classic climate change denier tactics - trying to deflect attention away from all the pollution the UK has caused and blame it on China.

Historic cumulative emissions per capita shows exactly who has caused climate change - UK is 5th - so lots of damage to undo!

[Mothers Rise Up 🌍 (inactive) @mothersriseup]

The government is betraying our children & future generations & we are furious.

If you are too, JOIN US this THURSDAY at 10.30AM outside 10 DOWNING STREET where we will make it known that we won’t watch Rishi fiddle while Rhodes burns!
