🇪🇺 Just days before #COP30, EU climate ministers agreed a 2040 target of –90 % vs 1990 levels — but with loopholes allowing up to 10 % offsets abroad.

That means Europe will only cut ~85 % at home, paying others to decarbonise on its behalf.

⚠️The #WorldBank & #IMF are moving in the wrong direction.
This week's #AnnualMeetings have demonstrated how they continue to favour fiscal consolidation and private sector interests over timely and fair solutions.

The Global North owes the Global South $5 TRILLION a year in climate finance.

The Advisory Opinion of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) affirms what we have known: the Global North bears legal and historical responsibility for the climate crisis.
