Great to be part of an important dialogue today at the Canadian pavilion at #COP28 about the collaboration needed across sectors, governments and with Indigenous communities in tackling intersecting crises related to climate & housing Thank you to @SFUDialogue for the engagement.
And, that's a wrap on a wonderful event!

Municipalities are on the frontlines of climate change, and local leaders know what’s needed to build climate resilient communities. Tomorrow at #COP28, FCM CEO @CaroleSaab will join Amina Yasin, @anaf_gg, Serena Mendizabal, and Elodie Jacquet for this important discussion.
Crickets for this #Cop28 Alberta event on their upstream petroleum research fund. Petro provinces and Big Oil are here, but they’re twiddling their thumbs in the corner 🦖
Dec 3rd at #Cop28 : emphasis on the public health risks of climate disasters and adverse weather like heat domes.
This eve, @anaf_gg & I are at a session w/ Min @s_guilbeault + @MathiasCormann of OECD on adaptation finance & leveraging private resource in this sector, incl MDBs.
New Canadian Sustainable Finance Taxonomy broken down by the one & only @JulieESegal. Glad it exists, better than the draft (no FF!) but CCUS for existing oilsands & blue hydrogen as 'transition activities'? The SFAC chose violence (incompatibility with 1.5) this Friday evening🫠
Breaking: recommendations for a 🇨🇦 Sustainable Finance Taxonomy... including oilsands investments. What is a Taxonomy and what does this mean for 1.5C ? Thread to come. Meaty.
The Canadian government sure loves publishing things semi-secretly on a Friday.

We have a new paper out in The Lancet Planetary Health. Our research shows that existing climate mitigation scenarios tend to perpetuate colonial inequalities between the global North and South through 2100.
The story is quite troubling... 🧵https://t.co/8965oeYHEr
No estamos dimensionando lo que el ECOCIDIO del #TrenMaya implica.
Sus impactos ya son de una escala de terror y todavía no pasa el primer vagón; falta el desborde del turismo, más especulación, más despojo, más narco, más violencia...
Esto vi 🧵:
Desde el 2018 crecen 480% las desapariciones de mujeres en CDMX.
Mas de 680 mujeres que no sabemos dónde están, que sus familias están viviendo un infierno y que las cifras siguen en aumento.
