“..The transition from fossil fuels is not just one of many issues—it is the root cause of the climate crisis and must be addressed head-on at COP29” And it must be prioritized as we enter the final stages of #cop29 negotiations. María Mendiluce, We Mean Business Coalition, The B Team
As #COP29 nears its final conclusion, the pressure is on to keep up the momentum on climate action and climate finance.? It’s not game over, it’s game on. #Mission2025
We are in the final countdown to limit global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius to avoid the worst impacts from the climate crisis. And time is not on our side. In this crucial period, I urge global leaders at the #COP29 climate conference to let themselves be guided by a clear truth: Climate finance is not charity, it’s an investment. Climate action is not optional, it’s an imperative. Both are indispensable: to a liveable world for all humanity and a prosperous future for every nation on Earth.
?? Investing in nature is investing in our future. ?? The #BTeam joins this crucial call to action for negotiators at #COP29 to address the interconnected climate and biodiversity crisis. #Mission2025 #ProtectWhatWeLove #NCQG #ClimateFinance
Today is Nature Day at #COP29 and we’re making ourselves heard. More than 80 organizations have come together to call on the UNFCCC Parties to properly recognize and finance nature’s role in addressing the climate crisis, or risk undermining global efforts to limit global warming to 1.5C. ?? The message is simple:?We need to rapidly decarbonize the world’s economy toward zero emissions and halt the destruction of natural ecosystems.
