Activists are lining the path to the negotiating rooms at #COP28 as talks stretch into the night.
The latest draft text is wholly unacceptable in failing to #EndFossilFuels.
We’re calling on our leaders to #HoldTheLine + push for the fossil fuel phaseout we deserve.
It's crunch time, critically the guidance given here on #Article6o4 must ensure that the #SustainableDevelopment tool and grievance mechanism are established BEFORE any activities are authorized. And both must be rooted in #HumanRights. Anything less is unacceptable
🚨 BREAKING: The latest iteration of the Global Stocktake (GST) text has been released.
The clock is ticking on the final hours of #COP28 and this is a critical moment in the negotiations.
Thread below sharing our collective reactions and demands from the @CANIntl network:
Breaking: Breaking: At least 2456 fossil fuel lobbyists have been granted access to the #COP28 summit in Dubai.
The industry has historically used their presence in COPs to push for false solutions like Carbon offsets and CCS.
We need #PollutersOut, People In!
It’s day 1 here at #COP28 and it feels like deja vu for #Article6o4 and the potential to undermine ambition and the integrity of the #ParisAgreement. A short 🧵👇
Inside the negotiations rooms and outside in the streets around different corners of the world, our message to big polluters is and remains clear:
#EndFossilFuels#FastFairForever
👀 Something is happening this morning at #BonnClimateConference... clear message sent by civil society to welcome the #COP28 President for his 1st day on site at #SB58.
The future must be #FossilFree !

🚨a wide set of #COP27 decisions is now distributed and once again the #ParisAgreement is used to advance false solutions promoting the status quo rather than accelerating radically the race to phase out fossil fuels... A overview of some key problematic decisions...

With 80+ civil society orgs we urge Parties at #COP27 to demand the inclusion of a reference to the right to #HealthyEnvironmentForAll as a priority for the final negotiations at the climate talks & include this right into the COP political decision.

As COP27 moves to an end, I call on States to include the right to a healthy environment #HealthyEnvironmentForAll in the COP27 political decision. A clean, healthy and sustainable environment is indispensable to ensuring the right to adequate housing.
The #COP27 outcome must recognize the historic recognition by the #UNGA and @UN_HRC right to a clean, healthy & sustainable environment for all.
Anything less undermines the credibility of States commitments to protecting planet & people.
