🦦🌳Alors que Ville de Montréal s’apprête à accueillir la 15e édition de la Conférence des parties sur la diversité biologique, je salue la mobilisation sans précédent de la société civile québécoise, laquelle a mené à la constitution du collectif lancé aujourd’hui.

#COP15 #polqc

Don't miss it!! Green Economy Network, Canadian Labour and Eddy Pérez talk climate at COP27.

MEDIA: Today's International Energy Agency World Energy Outlook report shows that the answer to the world’s energy, climate, food insecurity & economic crises is the same – scaling back fossil fuels and scaling up renewables.Canada Energy Regulator must follow this example:

Gee: that’s quite the footnote #canada . #cop27 #cdnpoli #stopbaydunord

#COP15 à Montréal: 65 organisations de la société civile québécoise se mobilisent pour la sauvegarde du vivant. En décembre, montrons la voie! Pour des #GénérationsVivantes

Islands deserve not just to survive but to THRIVE. Islands incur huge debt to rebuild after climate disasters.

Developing countries are drivers of growth - an #LDFundforRecovery will yield global benefits. Justin Trudeau, time for Canada to step up!

#WeNeedLDFinance #COP27

A nice UN Environment Programme visual scathingly confirming CAN-Rac Canada and Ecojustice analysis: our current NDC and ERP do not meet 🇨🇦's climate obligations - international and domestic. These plans need to be strengthened!

IEA's #WEO22 is out! tl;dr -- it swats away arguments that 'the world needs more Canadian oil and gas' in the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. /1

When Steven Guilbeault and Justin Trudeau tell you to celebrate our recent, tiny 'progress' on climate, show them this table from #unep 2022 report
Our government told the UN, they do not intend to meet the target they've committed to the Paris Agreement
Clearly, this must change!

BREAKING‼️

UN Environment Programme Emissions Gap Report 2022 out today show's world is widely off track on cutting emissions by half by 2030

Reactions from Climate Action Network International (CAN) by Harjeet Singh Eddy Pérez Teresa Anderson

The dream & the nightmare in one figure:

Dream: Current policy settings are estimated to lead to a peak in all fossil fuels before 2030

Nightmare: A long, protracted plateau leading to ~2.5°C warming in 2100, & rising thereafter

iea.org/reports/world-…

21 of 40 indicators are “well off track”.

*All* our finance indicators fall in this category.

Finance is a critical enabler, but govts spent almost $700bn on fossil fuels in 2020 - failing to deliver on the PA goal of aligning financial flows with #1.5oC. 2/5

Today, the UN announced the 🌎’s current climate pledges put us on track for a disastrous 2.5°C of warming - meaning far more & worse heatwaves, flooding, fires, and drought.

We can’t compromise with science. Delay in phasing out fossils comes at the expense of people’s lives.

For Carbon Brief, I plotted every extreme weather event in Africa recorded in the Emergency Events Database for 2022

Latest UN Climate Change report is no good news. National climate plans remain insufficient to keep 1.5 within reach, save lives & livelihoods.

Emissions need to be cut 45% by 2030, but they’re set to increase 10.6%.

Govt's must get serious & urgently bridge the ambition and action gap!
