"Humanity has done hard things before."
During a visit at the climate conference #COP26 in Glasgow, former US President @BarackObama encouraged delegates to rise to the challenge of the climate crisis.
Once again Barbados PM Mia Mottley has been the one who has delivered the speech the world needed. May she be heard, may we rise. Take 8 minutes to listen to the whole thing. Share the lines that grabbed you most. #COP26
At this time, when the world need urgent and concrete climate commitments. It's imperative to have hope, that climate actions can be effectively and ambitiously enhanced with leaders like @JoeBiden.
Though the times are tough and worrying, today, on the second day of COP26, let's highlight on the efforts of one of the global leaders who has been on the forefront of addressing climate in climate change since 1980s, President Joe Biden. @POTUS
The reluctance of global leaders to act on climate change, has agitated young people all over the world to speak boldly and furiously of their betrayal and disappointment on climate actions.
So, @BorisJohnson has warned that unless leaders at #COP26 address the #ClimateEmergency, we risk the collapse of civilization. Is this really a possibility?
Unfortunately, yes, many leading climate scientists are indeed warning of collapse 1/n 🧵
