🌍⚠️ #COP30 ends with small steps but no real breakthrough

👎A full year above 1.5°C wasn't enough to find an adequate agreement on phasing out #FossilFuels and financing adaptation
👍 the agreement on a #JustTransition mechasism is a silver lining

Bravo Colombia @ COP30 Brazil 👏

The representative from Colombia at the COP30 objects to the consensus programme that does not mention fossil fuels. This should be the COP of truth and science-based politics.

In Europe, LNG buildout is slowing due to uncertain demand. In France, the administrative court of Rouen repealed the approval of the “Cape Ann” FSRU, operated by TotalEnergies, due to low regasification operation.

Every dollar invested in adaptation can generate more than 10 times that in benefits through avoided losses, as well as induced economic, social and environmental benefits.

Climate adaptation has never been more vital for our survival
COP30 needs to be transformative. Let this be the moment we finally move from awareness to alignment, and from ambition to action.

Nothing like Bill Gates serving us "tough truths about the climate"✨ A fossil-fuel billionaire offsetting his way out of accountability.

Meanwhile, his foundation's stocks in fossil giants like Chevron, Energy Transfer, BP, Occidental Petroleum, KazMunayGas, cannot be greenwashed.

Bullying from the US and a huge setback for the EU, which failed to push through the Net-Zero Framework for the shipping industry and even saw some of its member countries abstain.

Shame on Greece and Cyprus.

Boiling planet 🌍 🌡️ 🔥

CO₂ emissions are still rising, not falling. Nature has long been our silent partner: forests, grasslands, wetlands, and oceans absorb roughly half of human CO₂ emissions each year. This critical service depends on healthy, functioning ecosystems.

❌ No Gov. Dunleavy, #Halong was not an “act of God”. The storm was fueled by the massive marine heatwave now stretching across the N Pacific and Alaska ocean waters — the result of warming caused by anthropogenic carbon emissions. This is the #ClimateCrisis and it's real.

⚠️ Energy security cannot rely on fossil fuels -from Russia, the US or elsewhere-
⚠️ A fossil fuel-based system doesn’t work for Europe’s security or economy.
