#LossAndDamage#TC1 meeting in Luxor, Egypt ended.
8 Takeaways:
1. All countries (seemingly) agree to operationalise a new Fund, alongside assessing & strengthening Funding Arrangements, such as humanitarian response etc.
At #AUSummit, Africa’s leaders must speak with one voice and:
🔥Call out claims that gas is a clean fuel
🌍Label gas what it is… a dangerous distraction for Africa
🌞Call for rapid transition to renewable energy

Climate justice is both a moral imperative & a prerequisite for effective global #ClimateAction.
The climate crisis can only be overcome through cooperation – between peoples, cultures, nations, generations.
Let's work together to get the job done.
“It is so decided”
The @UN General Assembly just unanimously adopted the resolution for an advisory opinion on #HumanRights and #ClimateChange from the @CIJ_ICJ ⚖️.
🎉 This is a historic moment and a win for climate frontlines communities across the world.
Important work has been taking place at #TC1 to operationalise the fund for addressing #LossAndDamage. As #IPCC AR6 made clear, the #ClimateCrisis is already causing loss and damage, and our vulnerable populations are worst affected. The loss and damage fund is essential for LDCs
BREAKING!!❗️❗️
@UN General Assembly unanimously adopts a resolution for an advisory opinion on climate change & human rights from the International Court of Justice @CIJ_ICJ
