Following the #ICJAO, @unsrclimatehrights.bsky.social Elisa Morgera highlights that phasing out fossil fuels is now explicitly recognized as central to States’ obligations, reinforcing their duty to protect human rights & life-supporting systems, including the climate.

"We have to uphold these decisions everywhere we can. We need to work inside and outside." UN @unsrclimatehrights.bsky.social Elisa Morgera underscores that the #ICJAO is the minimum floor for any action. Any negotiating position that might go below the level of AO must be called out.

⚠️🇧🇷 Artigo no @oglobo.globo.com sobre #licenciamento: Entre os relatores da ONU, o clima é de “profunda preocupação” porque o texto estaria flexibilizando as licenças ambientais no Brasil a ponto de comprometer as atuais e futuras gerações. oglobo.globo.com/blogs/lauro-...
