Die #UNEP verhandelt über ein Abkommen zur #Reduzierung von #Primärplastikpolymeren, um den gesamten Lebenszyklus von #Plastik zu adressieren. Angesichts der Verdoppelung der #Plastikproduktion von 2000-2019 und der prognostizierten Zunahme auf mindestens 20.000 Mio Tonnen bis 2040, ist eine drastische Reduktion von #Neuplastik essenziell. Die hohe Produktion und Subventionierung fossiler Brennstoffe halten die Preise künstlich niedrig, was das #Recycling erschwert.

Happy to be back to the advisory meeting of #unep #eurobats. Lots of things to resolve to protect a highly vulnerable taxon, namely bats. For example, unregulated erection and operation of wind turbines across #Europe. Thousands of #bats collide with and die at wind turbines in Europe. We lose important ecosystem players, which adds to the biodiversity crisis. We need to do better and curtail the operation of turbines at times of high bat activity.

* Relentless mitigation and low-carbon transformations essential to narrow emissions gap
* COP28 and Global Stocktake provide an oportunity to build greater ambition for next round of climate pledgesEmissions Gap Report 2023: Emissions dangerously increasing and heading for 2.9 degrees C global warming on current policies
