My registration for the #UNWaterConference has been approved. However, I lack fundings for arrangement of my travel. My region has faced it rough due to water insecurity & my voice is the hope that they need. Help me to make it to the @UN_Water Conference 2023. @sanwatforall

Al Jaber's appointment as #COP28 President is outrageously regressive and deeply problematic to say the least! Fossil fuels are the root cause of the #ClimateCrisis. His position as CEO of the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company raises grave conflict of interest issues.

A little thought experiment for #COP27 By a large distance, the US has the greatest historical responsibility for climate change But China's emissions today are much higher If their CO2 emissions remain constant, US would still have a large lead over China by 2030

New draft decision on future COPs confirms UAE will host COP28 next year (but in Dec). However, COP29 in 2024 will be in "East Europe" (hence, Bulgaria and Czech signalling their interest) and COP30 in 2025 would be in "Latin American & Carib". So Lula's Brazil? But when Oz?

To limit global warming to 1.5˚C, coal generation must be reduced by 80% by 2030 & phased out by 2040. At COP26, we launched #CATA with @RockyMtnInst & #ClimateSmartVentures. CATA is designed to help achieve these goals with a focus on finance. Read what we've been up to since:

The widely shared claim that the Iranian regime has committed to executing 15,000 detained protesters is not true. Please stop sharing it. The Iranian regime is horrific, brutal and ruthless as it actually is. There's no need to make up stories.
