Hier soir, le chef de cabinet de Jambon a donné un cours (160€ de droits d’inscription) sur le contenue de la loi programme alors que le parlement n’a toujours pas le texte. Interrogé en commission par mon groupe, Jambon a déclaré qu’il n’était pas au courant. sbm.be/opleiding/fi...

Effet positif de l'initiative : le sujet des thérapies de conversion est lancé dans plusieurs pays qui ne les interdisent pas, comme ici au Luxembourg. La Finlande, l'Irlande, les Pays-Bas et la Slovénie, qui ont atteint leur objectif, ne les interdisent pas. Ce sera un vrai appui dans la lutte !

Greed is the root cause of so many of the issues of our planet. Imagine a world where we could erase greed with a simple pill? What do you think our planet could look like ?

🚨 New #COP29 climate finance text is out.

A vague $1.3T target with no teeth, $250B in debt-creating finance, 0 commitment to end fossil fuels & no mention of #HumanRights nor #LossAndDamage.

Rich countries are dodging climate responsibilities & vulnerable nations will again pay the price.
New #COP29 finance text is ugly. All the bad stuff is in, all the good stuff out.

❌ Number too low to be worth mentioning
❌ Total evasion of responsibilities of wealthy countries
❌ No #LossAndDamage
❌ No #HumanRights
❌ No guaranteed provision, no grants

WTF - for real.

Compter sur les puits de carbone naturels (forêts, océans...) pour compenser les émissions fossiles ne permettra pas d'arrêter le réchauffement climatique.
Des pays détournent le terme de "neutralité carbone" de manière délibérément fallacieuse: ils trichent😡

Countries could use nature to ‘cheat’ on net zero targets, scientists warn
By relying on natural carbon sinks such as forests and peatlands to offset emissions, governments can appear closer to goals than they actually are

So I thought this year, there was limited space for "civil society" at #COP29 ? 😡😡
📣 BREAKING: New Kick Big Polluters Out's analysis finds a shocking 1,770+ fossil fuel lobbyists at #COP29 — this number is higher than the delegates of the ten most climate-vulnerable nations.

Three ideas to solve the #housingcrisis :
1. If you already own a house, don't buy a house
2. Change house when it becomes too big for you
3. BAN MONEY AND GIVE FREE HOUSING FOR EVERYONE!!! 🔥
