[High Ambition Coalition @HACoalition]

HAC members came together in the margins of #Petersberg2024 to discuss how our members can work together to deliver results on key issues this year, including climate finance, 1.5-aligned NDCs, and adaptation, and how we turn the promises of #COP28 into reality.

[Simon Stiell @simonstiell]

We need a quantum leap for #climatefinance.

The recent progress is helpful. But not enough.

My message to G7 ministers next week:

Mobilize ministers across your governments.
Push development banks for more.
Unlock more finance.

A nuclear war must never be waged — because a nuclear war can never be won.

I have urged the Security Council to state clearly that living with the existential threat of nuclear weapons is unacceptable, and to lead the way to a world free of these instruments of annihilation.

@COP29_AZ @g__j @OctopusEnergy @ETC_energy @WorldBank @Arup @grp_resilience @ZeroCarbonShip @GlobalCanopy What are the implications of hosting COP negotiations in a petrostate for a second year?

@theGCF, @WMBtweets, @ClimateWorks, Marshall Islands, and @COP26 discuss the historic acknowledgement of the “transition away” from fossil fuels leading into COP29. #FTClimateCapital

[Tina Stege @EnvoyRmi]

Yours truly is on island time with my posts but I really did appreciate the conversation on the necessity of #finance to deliver on #climateambition this year. On the road to #COP29AZE.

We discussed the need to deliver #finance for climate this year, so countries can come to #COP30 in Brazil with strengthened plans to reduce GHG pollution & build resilience to climate impacts.

This is what happens to islands in RMI 🇲🇭 during a king tide, a common occurrence and reality for low-lying atoll nations.

If you’ve ever asked yourself why RMI leaders, negotiators and climate justice activists lead with so much knowledge, heart and passion—this is why.

[Nic Maclellan @MaclellanNic]

Having just flown out of Majuro, it’s sobering to see these images of flooding of atolls across the #MarshallIslands, caused by king tides and sea level rise. The climate emergency is not a future challenge - it’s driving ecological, economic and cultural transformations, now.

[Tina Stege @EnvoyRmi]

In honor of International Women's Day, I celebrate this brilliant daughter of the #MarshallIslands. Gone far too soon but her legacy lives on in her contributions to our scientific understanding of atoll environments impacted by #nucleartesting and #climatechange. Rest in Love.

[Nic Maclellan @MaclellanNic]

For @IBIupdate, I speak with Marshall Islands President Hilda Heine, who is concerned about funding delays for Compact states. Her shot across the bows: “Our nation has been a steadfast ally of the United States, but that should not be taken for granted.”

Meanwhile, back home...

[Nic Maclellan @MaclellanNic]

In the lead up to Nuclear Victims Remembrance Day on 1 March - the 70th anniversary of the #Bravo nuclear test - students at the College of Marshall Islands meet to discuss the health and environmental legacies of 67 US nuclear tests on #Bikini and #Enewetak atolls.

[Tina Stege @EnvoyRmi]

Privileged to join my brothers and sisters in Arkansas to 'Commemorate.Educate.Empower' communities living with the legacy of nuclear testing on the 70th anniversary of the Bravo bomb. #nuclearvictimsremembranceday
