Torres Strait Islanders lead from the frontlines of the climate crisis, holding decision makers accountable for the rising sea levels that threaten their homes. #COP27 delegates must listen to the #TorresStrait8

[Mahmoud Mohieldin @MMohieldin27]

Inspiring conversations with young leaders at #COP27, including #ClimateActivist @franciscoactiv2, author of "Pregúntale a Francisco: ¿Qué es el cambio climático" / "Ask Francisco: What is Climate Change?", which has now been translated into Arabic!

We were privileged to host a session today at #COP27 with incredible indigenous advocates who are using the law to drive change. Their voices are powerful and need to be heard. Saye Thompson, Yessie Mosby, @JoanCarling and @Dinamam

[ClientEarth @ClientEarth]

Yessie Mosby’s island home is being destroyed by climate change. In Sept, the UN decided the Aus government is breaching its human rights obligations to him, & 7 other claimants. Yessie is now at #COP27, as world leaders discuss the loss & damage people like him face every day.

Tomorrow 3pm Egypt, come to hear Indigenous voices from the frontlines of the climate crisis, Amon Room, Blue Zone #CoP27

We come from small islands but make big waves 🌊 We built a replica seawall on Parliament Lawns✊🏾

A delegation of Torres Strait Islanders in CBR asking politicians to ramp up action to save their Island homes from ⬆️ sea levels.

They recently won a case against the 🇦🇺 govt at the UN who ruled the govt has failed to protect them against climate change.
