Since 2017, the Int'l Energy Agency has told the world the fossil fuel industry can reduce its emissions of toxic, planet-warming methane at little to no cost to itself. But industry keeps failing to clean up its act. Methane emissions are still rising in lockstep with production. bit.ly/47YXaVt

For decades we've been point to this injustice. After all this, what's being delivered in addressing the damages the global North has created? 0.03% of what's needed.
Let's talk numbers. The Justice Gap is immense.
Annual Need: US $395 billion
Initial Allocation: US $125 million
That’s just 0.03% of what's needed to help frontline communities every year. We are tracking every dollar, from promise to payment. #LossAndDamage

📣NEW Global Campaign Launched: #FillTheFund!
The establishment of the Fund for responding to #LossandDamage was a breakthrough, but it remains critically underfunded—little more than an empty promise.
Rich nations are now shirking their historical responsibility.

Canada just submitted its 2035 Nationally Determined Contribution.
With multilateralism under threat, respecting international commitments is crucial.
But 🇨🇦 is still relying on an extraction-based economy, when we need to pivot for a safer, stronger future.

Yesterday the US walked out of the UN Tax Convention negotiations all alone. But not before accusing the majority of being inflexible for not giving in to US demands, and inviting other countries to join in opposition (no takers so far 😞)
