@raniahrr speaking for @wgc_climate demands that the @unclimatechange address the link between militarism and the #ClimateCrisis: “The carbon footprint of warfare is a wound ❤️🩹 that bleeds our planet 🌍 and it must be addressed!”
The #BonnClimateConference 2024 saw several important actions ✊ demanding that the countries most responsible for the #ClimateCrisis 🌡️ meet their obligations under the @unclimatechange and its #ParisAgreement and #PayUp 💰 for #ClimateFinance for #Mitigation, #Adaptation and #LossAndDamage.

Dr. @Sindra.Sharma of Fiji 🇫🇯 for @CANPacificIslands on why the @AOSIS_chair and the Chair of the #LeastDevelopedCountries at @UNClimateChange need the New Collective Quantified Goal on #Climate Finance (#NCQG) to deliver trillions💰💰💰for #Adaptation and #LossAndDamage and to keep the 1.5°C target of the #ParisAgreement alive. 🚫🌡️ #LossAndDamage #SaveOurPlanet 🌍 #PayUpForLossAndDamage 💸 #ClimateJustice ⚖️
🤔In negotiations on the New Collective Quantified Goal on #ClimateFinance (#NCQG) developing countries say they need at least $1.3 trillion USD for #Mitigation 🏭🚫, #Adaptation 🏗️ and #LossAndDamage🔥. 🤑But the rich countries who have caused the #ClimateCrisis stay silent. 🤯
As negotiations on the New Collective Quantified Goal on #ClimateFinance (#NCQG) are under way at the #BonnClimateConference, #CivilSociety heroes call for billions and not millions to fill the #LossAndDamage Fund NOW and for #LossAndDamage to be included as a subgoal under the #NCQG with 3 simple, yet powerful, slogans: 🎶 “Fill the Fund now!” 🎶 “Billions, not millions!” 🎶 “Pay up for loss and damage!” The #NCQG is a new annual financial target that developed countries must meet from 2025 onward to provide climate finance to developing countries. It will replace the previous commitment of USD 100 billion per year that developed nations had pledged in 2009 but failed to deliver. #SaveOurPlanet 🌍 #ClimateChange
A #LossAndDamage action with members of #CivilSociety on Day 5 of the #BonnClimateConference 2024 coming together before the third and final #GlasgowDialogue on #LossAndDamage to demand that rich countries #PayUp4LossAndDamage saw David Hillman of @makepolluterspay lead a #LossAndDamage rendition of the @thepolicebandofficial’s “Every breath you take”: 🎵“Every move you make, ever pledge you state, we’ll be watching you, we’ll be watching you.”🎶 ✊ #ClimateChangeIsReal #SaveOurPlanet
Great insight on the tactics at play in the negotations surrounding #ClimateFinance from @harjeet_11 of the @fossilfueltreaty during @can.international’s press conference on #ClimateFinance, #LossAndDamage, and #GlobalStocktake on Day 4 of the #BonnClimateConference 2024. Developed countries are refusing to take responsibility and are now earning huge profits 💰🤑 from climate loans, perpetuating the cycle of #poverty with the same colonial and extractive mindset that caused the #ClimateCrisis in the first place. For countries on the front lines of the #ClimateCrisis in the #GlobalSouth, loans increase their debt burden and reduce their ability to take #ClimateAction, including addressing #LossAndDamage. This is a massive #ClimateInjustice ⚖️.
Bolivia 🇧🇴 reminding us who we are fighting for ✊ at the Opening Plenary of the #BonnClimateConference 2024. “Every year we are experiencing more extreme events, each year the #ClimateChange impacts in the world are larger than the previous… Developed countries have not fulfilled any of their obligations under the @unclimatechange and implementation of the #ParisAgreement,“ they also reminded the parties. #lossanddamage #saveourplanet
Highlights of the press conference held by the @aosis_chair and the Chair of the Least Developed Countries Group to share expectations for the @unclimatechange #bonnclimateconference. Stay tuned for more. #lossanddamage
👏 The Loss and Damage Collaboration - L&DC is pleased to present the final film in a series of four short films featuring the amazing Alexander Moses. With the question of who is going to pay for #LossAndDamage on everyone’s mind now that there is a #LossandDamageFund, this short film talks about how the rules of the game we signed into international law when the UNFCCC was agreed in 1992 —the rich countries who are the most responsible for the #ClimateCrisis must pay their fair share!
🤑With the question of who is going to pay for #LossAndDamage on everyone's mind now that there is a #LossandDamageFund, we are launching a new @lossanddamagecollaboration short film in the coming days that reminds us who should be paying up for #LossAndDamage at #COP28UAE! (Spoiler 😊 it’s the rich countries most responsible for the #climatecrisis!).
Standing in solidarity. Loss and Damage at COP28.
Witt #COP28 starting tomorrow in Dubai, in the #uae, here is our #LossAndDamage expectations video on 7 things that #COP28UAE must deliver to stand in solidarity with those on the frontlines of the #climatecrisis on Loss And Damage. These are:
1. The Loss And Damage Fund must be set up so it can get to work sending money to countries and communities on the frontlines of the Climate Crisis so that they can recover and rebuild following a Climate Disaster.
2. The first #GlobalStocktake of the #ParisAgreement must include Loss and Damage as a separate issue with a plan of how to deal with it. The Global Stocktake must recognise that #ClimateAction is way off track! We need a road map to scale up Climate Action on all fronts!
3. The rich countries that are most responsible for the Climate Crisis must pay their fair share into the Loss And Damage Fund. At least $400 billion (USD) a year will be needed to meet the projected Loss and Damage cost. It's time to fill the Fund!
4. The host for the #santiagonetwork for Loss and Damage (SNLD) must be agreed, an Advisory Board appointed and money delivered so it can get to work providing technical assistance with @UNFCCC as its interim host.
5. Fossil fuel companies and other polluting industries must pay into the #LossAndDamage Fund. It's time to #MakePollutersPay for the #LossAndDamage they have caused! Alternative sources such as a #ClimateDamages tax are needed to reach $400bn (USD) a year!
6. The New Collective Quantified Goal on #ClimateFinance (#NCQG) must start talking about a sub-goal for #LossAndDamage finance. This #LossAndDamage sub-goal must be at least $400bn (USD) a year!
7. To avoid as much future #LossAndDamage as possible, we need ambitious #mitigation and #adaptation action. #COP28 must keep 1.5°C alive and work towards a rapid and fair phase-out of #fossilfuels!
👏 The Loss and Damage Collaboration - L&DC is pleased to present the third in a series of four short films featuring the amazing Moses Alexander. For some, the story of #LossAndDamage starts with the Industrial Revolution, the story of a carbon crisis caused by mass consumption and 30 years of #ClimateInaction. For others, Loss and Damage is more than just a #climatecrisis, it's a problem rooted in centuries of #colonialism and #inequality, a story shaped by #Racism, violence and exploitation. This short film asks: “Where does the story of LossAndDamage start?”. And more importantly: “Where do we want the story of loss and damage to end?”. With a world that’s “lost and damaged” or with transformation?
#LossAndDamage is about more than what has been “lost” and what has been “damaged”, it’s about transformation. It's about ensuring that every human, every species and every ecosystem has what it needs to thrive and not just survive in this moment of #ClimateCrisis. This Sunday, the 26th of November, we will launch a new Loss and Damage short film that asks: “Where does the story of Loss and Damage start?”. And more importantly: “Where do we want the story of Loss and Damage to end?”. With a world that’s “lost and damaged” or with transformation?

The Loss and Damage Collaboration - L&DC is pleased to present the second in a series of four short films featuring the amazing Moses Alexander. You might have heard that in 2022, COP 27 climate negotiations, established a #LossAndDamage Fund. But did you know that the Fund is still an empty bucket? This means that communities of the front lines of the #climateemergency are paying out of their own pockets for a crisis they did little or nothing to cause. Don’t you think that's unfair? Yeah, we do too. That's why at #cop28dubai it’s “Time to Fill the #LossandDamageFund!”
Rich countries are spending $2.6m dollars every minute. Every minute! To artificially lower the prices of coal, oil, and gas. An insane amount, spent on the very things that are causing the climate crisis. Wouldn't that money be better spent on loss and damage? Yeah, we think so too…. That's why we're launching a new @lossanddamagecollaboration short film on the 19th of November about how rich countries can afford to #PayUp4LossAndDamage by filling the #LossAndDamage Fund (even if they say they are broke…). For now, here is a clip! #climatecrisis #COP28UAE #lossandamage #lossanddamagefinancenow #santiagonetwork
You know that in 2022 and 2023 big oil and gas companies made huge profits whilst the #climatecrisis caused hundreds of billions of dollars of #lossanddamage across the globe? Don’t you think that's unfair? Yeah, we do too. That's why we're launching a new @lossanddamagecollaboration short film about what can be done with those profits on the 12th of November! For now here is a clip! #climatecrisis #cop28uae #lossandamage #lossanddamagefinancenow #payup4lossanddamage #santiago network

The Loss and Damage Collaboration - L&DC is pleased to present the first in a series of four short films featuring the amazing @_mosesalexander. Because, as big oil and gas companies are making huge profits and the #climatecrisis is causing hundreds of billions of dollars of #LossAndDamage across the globe, we think “Yeah, It’s About Time For Polluters to Pay Up for #LossAndDamage”. Don't you agree? #LossandDamageFund #PayUp4LossAndDamage
