@SyedSaddiq @sprgovmy Saya. Melbourne.

Yep. Achieving water and sanitation for all will need more than toilets and taps.

An @IISD_ENB brief highlights the role for human rights-based approach to achieve #SDG6

@deliaruthpaul calls for concerted efforts in areas of #biodiversity, #climatechange, land use, chemicals and #waste, and disaster risk reduction to help achieve #SDG6

@tanjoolee Happy birthday to your Mum!

[Delia Paul @deliaruthpaul]

@1AmyChew is there an email where I can reach you? It's about the situation developing on the India-Myanmar border, with refugees from Chin state. Indian press have somewhat covered it but numbers are growing and there has been little international media attention so far.

[Delia Paul @deliaruthpaul]

@JiayangFan Deepest condolences. I loved your stories and had a different but similar journey of figuring out care for my mum (also Chinese) until her death. Your words bring comfort that we're not alone.

[Delia Paul @deliaruthpaul]

Thanks, @MekongEye. Here's hoping countries in the region do benefit from the promise of Glasgow.

"Boosting adaptation finance should mean that the world’s poorest countries have additional resources to do what they urgently need" @RWallenbergInst @Victorbernard91 @deliaruthpaul

The Glasgow climate conference promised to double finance for #climateadaptation by 2025, from 2019 levels. Here’s why #humanrights must be front and centre, if the global South and the poor are to benefit. https://t.co/vnWcGxxk0s

#climatechange, conflict, and #COVID19 force us to recognize poverty and environment challenges are one: https://t.co/GaDB9sZMMc This week, the 'Still Only One Earth' project team @IISD_ENB had Q&A with @CanadaFP on what it all means.

[Delia Paul @deliaruthpaul]

My latest. Multistakeholder action has both helped and hindered efforts to curb #marinepollution.

[Earth Negotiations Bulletin @IISD_ENB]

Dead zones. Red tides. Sea life eating plastic.

A new brief from @IISDRS looks at why marine and coastal pollution from land-based sources keeps increasing despite global efforts.

An op-ed in The Diplomat, @CItuarteLima. Check out the ideas for how #asean can support countries to treat human rights and environmental care as two sides of the same (economic) coin. https://t.co/WGwSfscUpE

Is the Aus government responsible for climate impacts on Torres Strait Islanders? UN experts say yes: https://t.co/f1pfIpNGbY

[Delia Paul @deliaruthpaul]

The #HumanRight to a healthy environment is more than a legal concept. There are real, physical, implications—like tackling the choking smog we get every year in Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia. See today's story in The Diplomat by @lukeanthonyhunt : https://t.co/MCpBpuBuGS

[Delia Paul @deliaruthpaul]

Malaysian national news agency Bernama picked up our new report: 'As member states of #ASEAN emerge from the impacts of #COVID19, the report builds on progress in the last 2 decades on the right to a healthy environment.'

@CItuarteLima @RWallenbergInst @UNEP_AsiaPac @OHCHRAsia Excellent remarks from you, if I may add!

[Delia Paul @deliaruthpaul]

Acess to info, public participation & access to justice promote the right to a healthy environment. I co-authored this overview of ASEAN countries’ laws and policies for people to claim their rights and have healthy lives. #HumanRights #SDGs https://t.co/bu8jt6iim0. It's out now!

[Delia Paul @deliaruthpaul]

@tanjoolee Horrifyingly, the world has stayed the same.

[Delia Paul @deliaruthpaul]

This is a great deal if you're thinking of organising a meeting near Geneva this July. And the view is priceless: https://t.co/5a6jiee7nl @CAUXIofC

[Delia Paul @deliaruthpaul]

@GECoalition Sure. [email protected]

[Delia Paul @deliaruthpaul]
