Why the fuck isn't the media challenging the CEOs of big corporations, who claim to be environmentally friendly, on the polluting effects of forcing millions of workers to return to their offices?

COP29: Nearly all observers believe climate change minister, Chris Bowen, is strongly committed to action but most would also agree that the Albanese government, as a whole, has a distinct lack of commitment. #climatecrisis #auspol www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

This should be an easy decision

Weekend read: We are still hours away from a deal at COP29. So what's it been like in Baku over the past two weeks? I try to give you a sense of the place and the negotiations with this Dispatch for Bloomberg's Weekend edition. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

An update! 😂

It's the final day of #COP29 and here at @abertayuni following progress as virtual observers. As an official UN observer organisation we can join proceedings in Baku whilst still based in Scotland. Today is the final day of COP, let's see if the negotiations deliver what our planet needs! 🌎🤞🏼

Who pays climate finance? It's a big sticking point at COP29 talks, with much talk of making rich, "developing" countries like 🇨🇳🇸🇦 pay. EU climate chief Wopke Hoekstra said yesterday that a "potential solution" could be to "move into a space of voluntary contributions."

Really impressive study from @carbonbrief.org fascinating work that gives a great insight into the ways in which climate change can fuel and/or intensify extreme weather events

We may leave #COP29 without any agreement on the just transition work programme, according to ECO. Not because parties aren't prepared to work on it, but because the presidency is unwilling to open text negotiations

We're looking forward to our session with American Psychological Institute and The George Institute at#COP29 this afternoon (Baku time). If you're there in person, please do join us! ⌚ 21 Nov, 13:15-14:45, Room 2 in the Blue Zone #ClimateChange #MentalHealth

We're here on Blue Sky to connect with you! We work to understand & support mental health in the climate crisis. This week we are at #COP29 - let us know if you are! #MentalHealth #ClimateChange

This is one reason I don't get too excited / depressed / angry about COP. It seems to me that most of the real action on the energy transition - including governments revising their plans for the age of cheap solar - is taking place elsewhere.

How great is this graphic. Such a good illustration of what an obscenely tiny proportion gets cleaned --->>> (Go follow the Unearthed team, they're doing lots of very important stuff)

The fossil fuel giants behind an "end plastic waste" scheme produced 1,000 times more plastic waste than their scheme removed, a report from Unearthed shows. The fossil fuel industry is on course to treble the amount of plastics being produced.

It is good to see the set of draft negotiating texts produced overnight in Baku that provide a basis for the last rounds of negotiation to reach agreement at #COP29. It is also daunting given how many issues remain to be resolved.
