Our campaigners who are at #COP30 make it clear: as the ICJ affirmed in its historic climate ruling, States have a binding legal obligation to protect human rights by taking sufficient measures.

1.5°C is the legal redline, and States must negotiate enough action at COP30 to stay under this limit!

Today is the International Day of Rural Women♀️

A good moment to remember that climate justice is impossible without gender justice, as women are affected more by the adverse effects of climate change.

The Paris Agreement states that gender equality should be respected & promoted in climate action.
