  1. • Fossil fuels were not mentioned in the key final decision – petrostates including Saudi Arabia and allies fought fiercely to keep that out.

    • A commitment to a roadmap to transition away from fossil fuels was not part of the formal deal

  6. I might have failed at my assignment from @[email protected] to say what makes me hopeful about climate, but I think @[email protected] and her team's work that would enable us to hold polluters responsible should be a source of hope. Tune in to Episode 4 of the #COPOut Podcast tomorrow!

  7. Two weeks before Brazil hosted the #COP30 UN climate summit in Belém this November, widely described by diplomats as the most important since Paris 10 years ago — the Brazilian government approved new oil drilling at the mouth of the Amazon

    On October 20, 2025, Brazil’s environmental agency Ibama approved Petrobras to drill an exploratory well in Block FZA-M-59, off the mouth of the Amazon — one of the world’s richest marine ecosystems

  8. Any other reasons why democracy doesn’t work: if democracy worked, fascist cults bankrolled by the ultra rich like Elon couldn’t buy elections? Without bought politicians and their propaganda getting maximum publicity, those like the lying Reform party wouldn’t have a chance of stealing elections. The consequences of democracy not working for the democratic rights of diverse interests is to let petrochemical arms interest continue their programme of ecocide and turn the U.S. Europe the U.K. etc. into toxic waste lands. All that just so ultras can get richer and more powerful while they and Earth lives! #Democracy #Dictatorship #CopOut

  9. A note which will be wasted on my lame bro so will not send.

    A few days of cold weather here do not contradict climate change.

    A few days of warm weather here do not support climate change.

    Look at bigger time scales and bigger geographic scales.

  10. Bin noch Berichte zu 2 #Filmen mit #BruceWillis aus der #tele5mediathek schuldig. Also ...

    "Once Upon a Time in Venice" ist ... so ein bisschen meh. Brucie ist Privatdetektiv und bekommt den Hund geklaut. Damit beginnt der Wahn.

    Besser gefallen hat mir "Cop Out - Geladen und Entsichert". Brucie ist ein Cop mit Geldproblemen. Hat mich zwischendurch, trotz flachem Klamauk, gut unterhalten.

    Beide #Filme sind noch einige Tage verfügbar also viel Spaß.

  16. “The grim state of Cop negotiations was further underlined last week by Ilham Aliyev, the president of Azerbaijan, who told world leaders that natural gas was a “gift from God”. Countries should not be blamed for bringing these resources to the market, he said, because “the market needs them”.”

    This conference is a fucking travesty. 🤦‍♂️

  17. These COP conferences have lost all legitimacy and should be boycotted by every nation that’s actually serious about #ClimateAction. At least that would save some of the emissions produced in having all these ‘world leaders’ fly in from around the world to accomplish absolutely nothing to address the problem. 🫤

    Whatever the reason, I’m fine with Canada not attending. These conferences are increasingly performative in nature and lead to little/no actual action.

    They’re a waste of CO2.

  19. @larryneufeld
    Just an idea—and hear me out—maybe if we stop letting petro-states host the conferences and perhaps ban fossil fuel lobbyists from attending? 🤔

  20. Foolishly I did not expect the deluge of "COP28 was a roaring success" articles that have now appeared.
    All of them filled with caveats and mitigating factors on why, according to their oh-so learned writer, not excluding fossil fuels from the future, is actually a huge win for mankind
    #cop28 #copOut #ClimateChange

  21. According to some, #COP28 has been a resounding success. Nations of the world are supposedly committed to "transitioning away from fossil fuels in energy systems, so as to achieve net zero by 2050."

    But there's nothing about ending fossil fuels by a certain date. Nothing about a phase-out, or even a phase-down. Nothing.
    #COPOUT

    Also notice there is no mention of fossil fuels in transportation, or in mining, or in manufacturing — only in energy systems. And what does that mean? It means the giant oil and gas companies, along with major petrostates, like the USA, Canada, Russia, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE are *very* happy. It's Business As Usual!

  22. #Oxfam on #Cop28 #Dubai draft text - " In response to the Global #Stocktake draft text released tonight, Nafkote Dabi, Oxfam International’s Climate Change Policy Lead, said:

    “If this current text is adopted, #COP28 will be a scandal that has failed us all. It is unimaginably bad. Instead of committing to #Phase Out all #FossilFuels, it only talks about a #PhaseDown of #coal – and ignores #oil and #gas altogether. Any language on actually paying for the transition toward #renewables for low-income countries is missing too. Right now, people are dying because of catastrophic #climate breakdown in the Horn of #Africa and around the world. This current proposal from COP28 does nowhere near enough to prevent massive loss of life. In the coming hours, all countries must categorically refuse this fatally flawed document, and demand a text that reflects the true will of the people." oxfamamerica.org/press/press-r

  23. Al Gore sums #Cop28 up nicely -
    “This obsequious draft reads as if #Opec dictated it word for word,” he tweeted. “It is deeply offensive to all who have taken this process seriously.”" #Cop #CopOut #ClimateSummit #ClimateCrisis #Klima #Climate #Klimakrise

  24. Honest Government Ad | COP31 Australia & the Pacific

    >The Australien Government made an ad about its bid to host the 2026 UN Climate Summit (COP31) with the Pacific, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative
