Congratulations to Lola Vallejo @vallejolola@birdsite.slashdev for her appointment as co-chair of the new #UNFCCC #MitigationWorkProgramme

Anyone has a book recommendations to understand how the COPs and the negotiation process work?
Don't hesitate to boost if you think some of your followers may have suggestions! Thanks.

If you are unhappy by the selection of an oil CEO for the #COP28 presidency, don't hesitate to flood the #UNFCCC email box to let them know:

secretariat@unfccc.int

We can't leave them think that this is ok. The UNFCCC urgently needs to reform the way COP meetings are conducted in order for us to adopt the measures we desperately need to tackle #climatechange in this crucial decade.

This is the #COP28 leadership team.
The gentleman in the middle is the CEO of the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company, and the husband of the lady on the right is President of Crescent Petroleum and Chairman of Pearl Petroleum.
The entire #UNFCCC #climatecrisis effort now risks delegitimization, as people feel they are taken for a ride.

I have no words to describe how shocked, baffled, and hopeless I am by the appointment of the oil CEO Sultan Al Jaber as the #COP28 president in this critical decade. I can’t believe this is even allowed by the UNFCCC. Another clear indication that COPs are in deep need of reforms if we want them to bring the changes that we desperately need to fight #climatechange.

Bringing leaders and stakeholders together to elevate the importance of ocean-based climate solutions on a warming ocean planet was of the great outcomes of the #oceanpavilion at #COP27 @WHOI @Scripps_Ocean @ForumSEC

Alongside public performances, we also identified a series of dramaturgical interventions through which different actors - esp. the #COP Presidency and #UNFCCC Secretariat - attempted to shape performances at #COP25.

According to this Business Insider piece, Amazon is on pace to LOSE $10 billion on its Alexa smart speakers.

As a point of comparison, the #UNFCCC Green Climate Fund spent roughly the same amount last year on 200 GHG mitigation projects in 128 countries, abating 2.1 billion tonnes of CO2eq.

#ClimatePolicy #COP27

I’ve read enough about the feeble-mindedness and fecklessness of the United Nations, #unfccc, and #COP27 and all COP’s for that matter. Maybe it’s time for countries to just not go anymore and cease talking to the UN which is beholden to the major countries and their carbon-addictions. Take your ball and leave their sandbox. Don’t give them cover to continue their madness.

Honestly am not super hopeful about #COP27 #UNFCCC. Particularly on the financing for climate justice. I mean, we're still waiting on international reparations for SLAVERY, and the cause-and-effect chain is extremely well established there. No way colonizer countries will admit responsibility for climate injustice.

I’m no longer in the weeds of int’l #climate diplomacy, but maybe trying to squeeze a #FossilFuel phase out into the #UNFCCC is ignoring the lessons of the Paris Agreement and replicating the challenges of forcing cap-and-trade system thru the process?

Perhaps the EU, US, India (surprising to me they’re in this set, given how closely they aligned w/ Saudi in IPCC plenary!) & like-minded counties should work on a FF Non-Proliferation Treaty in a venue not requiring OPEC consensus? #cop27

Not quite thought this through, but for #COP28 can we lobby the #UNFCCC for #petrostate #climateaction-blocking countries like #Russia, Saudia Arabia only to be represented by their experts & civil society, a bit like when Russia was banned from Olympic Games but clean individuals could still compete under a neutral banner?

Anyone else interested in this?

See pp. 67-96 for my analysis of Russia & Kyoto Protocol in 2044 when Russia held the keys, some parallels now:

#climate #SharmElSheikh #UNFCCC #COP27

The #UNFCCC #CoP27, with 40,000 people rocking out at luxury resorts in Sharm El-Sheikh, was called the #ClimateChange "Implementation CoP".

I wasn't there.

So tell me, other than promising a little charity to poor countries, what did they implement? Is the planet now saved? Have emission targets been strengthened?

Or did they do absolutely diddly squat again except get drunk and bang hot activists?

If I can add more evidence of #Ukraine's #badassery (which if you read the piece you will see is not entirely unproblematic), #UkrainianScientists continued to run ultra #highResolution regional #ClimateModels, until the electricity was cut off by missiles. They are still writing + editing #IPCC reports, participating in #UNFCCC + #COP27 + planning #Antarctic #Fieldwork.

Proud to have them as partners in #HorizonEU #PolarRES

❝ … an economic crisis has reduced rich countries’ appetite for spending and the planet risks being trapped in fossil-fuel dependence by a rearguard action of big business. Yet during the pandemic, central banks across the world lubricated states’ expenditure by buying up their own governments’ bonds. The trillions of dollars needed to deal with the ecological emergency demand such radical thinking returns. ❞ → https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/nov/15/the-guardian-view-on-cop27-this-is-no-time-for-apathy-or-complacency
