the new sally rooney book has more references to fossil fuels than the intergovernmental panel on climate change's most recent summary for policymakers (0) and the 2015 paris agreement on climate change (0), and as many as the 2021 glasgow climate pact (1)

Think it's a long time until #COP27? Think again!

There's a packed schedule of important events – and COP processes – over the next year, leading up to the summit in Sharm el Sheikh in Egypt

Breaking: China and the US have jointly released a China-US joint Glasgow declaration on climate action in the 2020s. More soon.

[Ed King @edking_I]

Analysts I'm speaking to reckon this is the first time fossil fuels have been called out in a draft UN #climate decision text. Saudi, Russia, Australia may get it deleted - but it's a moment #COP26

1/CMA.3

still more mitigation (can you tell it's UK priority)

* requests report on impact of long-term targets by COP27
* "invites" (this is loose) regular updates to long-term strategies "in line w best available science"
* "recognises" more $$$ = higher ambition for d'ping

@edking_I Ha we just saw him too and he was extolling the virtues of a matriarchal society, good points made actually
