Despite the evident and increasing urgency of the climate crisis, the June inter-sessional meeting of the UNFCCC closed with little to show for two full weeks of negotiation, writes Mary Church, Center for International Environmental Law ipsnews.net/2024/06/un-cli…

From Bonn to Baku: Carbon market negotiations are putting #geoengineering onto the #UNFCCC agenda | Read about the implications of the upcoming #climate negotiations for Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) projects in our latest newsletter: geoengineeringmonitor.org/2024/07/july-2… #SB60 #COP29

🌍 The decisions made by the Supervisory Body of Article 6.4 will shape our climate future. We must prioritise a rapid, equitable phaseout of #fossilfuels to avoid surpassing 1.5°C. #ClimateJustice #ParisAgreement. #NoCarbonMarkets #NoFalseSolutions

📢 Carbon markets have failed to phase out fossil fuels and protect biodiversity. It is time to send a clear message: We need immediate action to halt #fossilfuel expansion. #NoCarbonMarkets #NoFalseSolutions #ClimateActionNow

The IPCC is planning a report on Carbon Dioxide Removal methodology. The framing of this work risks further normalizing reliance on #CDR & misses crucial context on the irreversible risks of overshoot. Read CSOs & Indigenous Peoples' reaction: realsolutions-not-netzero.org/ipcc-cdr-ccus A 🧵

St Ives Bay in the UK is the first place that Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement, a marine #geoengineering technology, as been field tested—and it was done in secret. Read about how the local community has responded and resisted further open-ocean experiments: geoengineeringmonitor.org/2024/07/st-ive…

Claiming that "unfounded fears are holding [#geoengineering] back" & then citing a controversial paper that likely overestimates the impact of the fall in shipping-related sulfur emissions to suit your agenda & with no caveat: slow clap emoji Will Rinehart thedispatch.com/newsletter/tec…
