#Cambodia just became the 18th country to officially support the #FossilFuelTreaty! 🇰🇭 At #COP30 in Belém, Cambodia affirmed their commitment to a fast, fair and financed global transition aligned with a low-carbon, climate-resilient future. 🔗 FossilFuelTreaty.org/cambodia%EF%...

As week 2️⃣ at the UN climate talks #COP30 in Belém 🇧🇷 begins, here's a recap of what happened during the 1st week & what to look for over the remaining days. A 🧵 on what went down 👇

📣 BREAKING At least 531 lobbyists for groups that advocate for a misguided technology that prolongs #FossilFuel use (aka Carbon Capture & Storage #CCS) have gained access to the #COP30 climate talks. Read: sg.news.yahoo.com/carbon-captu... A 🧵

📣 BREAKING: One out of every 25 attendees at the #COP30 climate talks is a fossil fuel lobbyist. The arsonists aren’t just in the building — they’re throwing fuel on the fire. We need to #KickOutTheSuits NOW! READ: kickbigpollutersout.org/Release-Kick...

Jede*r 25. Teilnehmer*in der Weltklimakonferenz #COP30 in Belém ist Lobbyist*in der fossilen Industrie. Das zeigt eine neue Analyse von #KickBigPollutersOut. Solange wir an Kohle, Öl und Gas festhalten, rückt der 1,5-Grad-Pfad in immer weitere Ferne. ➡️ kickbigpollutersout.org/Release-Kick...

#PressReleaseAlert 🌎 As COP30 and the Peoples Summit open in Belém, movements declare: Our HOME is not a laboratory ❗ 🚨Geoengineering is an illusionary fix, a dangerous distraction and false solution pushed by powerful interests through carbon markets. #HandsOffMotherEarth #COP30 #CúpulaDosPovos

📢 ❗Just published: "Solar geoengineering for profit" In this new blog, a group of academics responds to recent for-profit solar geoengineering ventures. www.solargeoeng.org/solar-geoeng... Their key message? 🧵👇 1/8

Now more than ever, we need to heed warnings about overshoot pathways & follow leadership of Africa & Pacific calling for non-use of solar geoengineering. We urge our movement partners around the world to join us at this critical moment in saying: ‘Hands Off Mother Earth, No to Geoengineering.’

Petrochemicals are a barrier to a fossil fuel phaseout 👉@laurimyllyvirta.bsky.social @carbonbrief.org on China‘s emissions trends www.carbonbrief.org/analysis-chi...

AI’s soaring power demand is being used to justify new gas/coal plants “cleaned” by CCS. Track record: 88% failures, big costs, bigger delays. With #COP30, close CCS/offset loopholes and align NDCs with 1.5°C. Read: bit.ly/4pgcG55 Let's not power tomorrow’s AI with yesterday’s fuels.

The European Ombudsman "has opened an inquiry into whether the European Commission acted secretively in its dealings with industry before launching a series of business-friendly initiatives".

🌎 Ahead of #COP30, we need less politics & more law. 🗣️ CIEL's @erikalennon.bsky.social, says this year the world must break the political gridlock that has defined climate negotiations.
