While COP29 ended with grossly insufficient financial commitments, Lancet Countdown shows countries had no problem in finding US$ 1.4 trillion to subsidise fossil fuels in 2022 alone. Taking externalities into account they rise to 7trillion Time to redirect funds towards a healthy, equitable future

Hi Friends! Getting started on Bsky as my new-COP-cycle resolution. While I wouldn't want to encourage a more siloed conversation, I hope the discussion can be more constructive here (and contribute less to a company whose values I don't share). That said, anyone else overwhelmed by social media?
