Dear @antonioguterres and @SelwinHart , as @COP26 will be the first COP in the new era of @LossDamage from human induced climate change, the relegation of this issue to a few words at the end is simply ignoring this reality. Time to appoint a Special Envoy for Loss and Damage !
From now there are no longer any purely 100% 'natural' extreme weather events. We have clearly entered the era of @LossDamage from human induced climate change! Expect an extreme weather record to be broken somewhere on the planet everyday from now on. Everyone everywhere act now
Less than two months for @COP26 ! Dear @AlokSharma_RDG , where is your champion for @LossDamage who can consult with parties on how to tackle this issue? Remember that the fate of how you deal with @LossDamage will determine the success/failure of @COP26 !

We're one of 50+ BC groups to send a letter to the Province today asking them to bring in a Climate-related Harms Liability Act. Time for polluters to pay their fair share of climate costs! https://t.co/rBwVQhfVYa #ClimateLitigation#ClimateJustice#Polluterpays#bcpoli
@CampanaleMark@BusinessGreen Tessa What a remarkable and inspiring person. She helped lift so many others. Condolences to her family but roaring in appreciation at the abundance of her love and achievements.
Thanks @PlanB_earth for@#UKClimateLawsuit . It’s already revealed delays & chaotic decision making by government. Let’s hope it results in ratcheting UK long term climate ambition. https://t.co/u7cGKlUgMQ
