@SouthAfricaMIW @AustraliaMIW South Africa needs to learn what sovereignty is. International relations = many states. The climate is global.

[Polar Regions @PolarMIW]

@AustraliaMIW @SouthAfricaMIW Yes, and we give the same to you. This is what sovereignty is. There is no up or down, leader and led. So act.

Consensus reached on 50 year ban on oil extraction in the Arctic. Let's get it into the text. #nonproliferation #COP21MIW

[Polar Regions @PolarMIW]

@SouthAfricaMIW We are sovereign entities. In UNFCCC regulations, we have the exact same status as states. We are all in this together...

[Polar Regions @PolarMIW]

@SouthAfricaMIW No. The state is also a non-human actor. What matters is giving agency and power to these actors. We need to do this now.

[Polar Regions @PolarMIW]

@AustraliaMIW So, non-state entities have as many 'rights' as states, according to your definition. People live in both, simultaneously.

Thanks for the support @MiwIndia! We're discussing a moratorium, what do you think? @StrandedMIW

[Polar Regions @PolarMIW]

@PhilippinesMIW @StrandedMIW @US_MIW @RussiaMIW Sounds interesting - we'd be keen to find out more about that proposal

[Polar Regions @PolarMIW]

Talking fossil fuels in the Arctic with @StrandedMIW @US_MIW @RussiaMIW #canadaMIW - can we get a moratorium on exploration/drilling?

[Polar Regions @PolarMIW]

Looking forward to a consensus vote in the land use contact group! #cop21miw @OceansMIW @CitiesMIW @SaharaMIW @ForestsMIW @miw_eu @SPC_MIW

[Polar Regions @PolarMIW]

@miw_eu By 2050! (Still great though)

[Ethiopia | MIW @EthiopiaMIW]

If we had an infinite amount of delegates would we reach consensus in the contact groups?

Support article 9 concerning Endangered Territories reducing risk in the arctic, #nonproliferation and avoid mutually assured destruction!

[Ethiopia | MIW @EthiopiaMIW]

So we managed to get the @AustraliaMIW raw carrot controversy onto the front page.
More satisfying than any consensus

We need to reduce global GHG emissions by 40-70% by 2050 to achieve 2 degrees #COP21MIW http://t.co/8KgcUZvct4

We're all part of the solution @SouthAfricaMIW
