As #COP28 closes, we have a final thought from Moe Moe Lwin of the Southeast Asian Cultural Heritage Alliance.

It's 0100 GST on Tuesday 12 Dec in Dubai and #COP28 is supposedly finishing in 10 hours, at 1100am

So…here's the latest status in all the key areas (click through for the full list and links to latest texts)

Do you think it will really finish by 1100?

If it's true that the UK, under PM Rishi Sunak, is dropping its £11.6bn climate finance pledge, it will, among other things, be awkward for… Rishi Sunak, who touted that very same pledge just a few days ago, noting that he had "reconfirmed" it at COP27 last year

[Caroline Lucas @CarolineLucas]

WTF?! The UK is one of the world’s richest countries & we’re really going to tell our kids we can’t “afford” to pay for a liveable planet for them?? And we’re going to betray some of the poorest countries? This Govt’s moral bankruptcy is truly sickening https://t.co/W9meGgIlqB

[Julie's Bicycle @JuliesBicycle]

Today we publish @theCCCuk annual report on progress in reducing UK emissions.

We reflect on policy progress in a year that brought the UK’s first recorded 40C day and spiralling fossil fuel costs.

And there’s a reality check on the acceleration needed for 2030 and beyond.

“There’s a remarkable power that the arts have to open people up to scientific information, to social information and to their sense of belonging and ability to make change."
