  1. Back from two weeks in Bonn for the annual #UNFCCC climate change conference #SB64 (sort of a pre-COP).

    Final agreed text on science has no discussion of tipping points, the prevalence of mis- and disinformation, to 1.5 degree pathways, or to emission reduction. All negotiated away by a few parties, who are accusing others of what they're themselves guilty of.

    Still, avoiding damage is also crucially important, given the far-reaching implications of the UNFCCC process.

  2. Useful overview from CIEL ‬exploring potential legal avenues to establish a voting procedure for the #UNFCCC.

  3. Like many other organizations, the #UNFCCC secretariat is present at X/Twitter, but not on Mastodon and Bluesky (please correct me if I'm wrong).

    Imho, that should change.

  10. The Indian government has quietly withdrawn its offer to host the #COP33 climate summit in 2028 citing some immediate commitments in 2028. Though no official clarification has been issued so far.
    Prime Minister #Narendramodi had announced in 2023, during COP28 in Dubai, that India wished to host COP33.
    The move had support from the #BRICS group—#Brazil, #Russia, #India, #China and #Southafrica. #Climatechange #CoP33 #UNFCCC

  17. Trump withdraws #US from world’s most important #climate #treaty
    Trump withdraws from #UN Framework Convention on #ClimateChange (#UNFCCC) and 65 additional UN and other multilateral groups, mostly linked to the environment, renewable energy, development, education, and the promotion of democracy and human rights.
    A year after Trump, who last year branded climate change a “con job,” announced that he would pull US from the 2015 Paris climate agreement for the second time.

  23. The #UNFCCC treaty for global cooperation on climate change serves the survival interests of everyone on this planet.

    Every country in the world has agreed to it.

    Trump withdrawing the US because it “no longer serves American interests” is not just ‘embarrassing’, it’s dangerous.

  25. Trump Pulls Out of Global #Climate Treaty
    The action could make it more difficult for a future administration to rejoin the Paris climate accord, the agreement among most nations to fight #climatechange.
    The agreement, officially known as the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, was established in 1992 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Known by its acronym, #UNFCCC, it was the foundation for the Paris agreement a decade ago.

  27. Die #USA unter #Trump sind unter anderem gerade aus folgenden Institutionen ausgetreten:

    #IPCC Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (Friedensnobelpreisträger 2007)
    #IRENA International Renewable Energy Agency
    #IUCN International Union for Conservation of Nature
    #UNFCCC UN Framework Convention on Climate Change

    Dazu kommen unzählige weitere Organisationen für Frieden, Entwicklung und Natur. Es braucht eine internationale Gegenwelt zu Trump und #Putin - vor allem mit Brasilien, China und Indien.

  29. Former Secy of State & US #climate envoy #JohnKerry blasted the move as an expected one, yet damaging to #US interests globally, calling it “a gift to China & a get out of jail free card to countries & polluters who want to avoid responsibility.”

    Because the #Senate ratified the #UNFCCC in 1992, it is a #legal gray area as to whether #Trump can unilaterally pull the country out of it. However, if #Congress plays a role, the #Republican majority would presumably back the move.

  31. It also set up a process for negotiations between countries that have come to be known as the annual #UN #climate summits. It was under the #UNFCCC’s auspices that the #KyotoProtocol was negotiated in 1995, & the #ParisAgreement in 2015 — two monumental moments of global cooperation & progress toward limiting harmful climate #pollution.

  33. The agreement in question is the #UnitedNations Framework Convention on #ClimateChange, or #UNFCCC, which the #US joined & #Congress ratified in 1992, when George H.W. Bush was in the White House. The agreement does not require the US to cut #FossilFuels or #pollution, but rather sets a goal of stabilizing the amount of climate pollution in the atmosphere at a level that would “prevent dangerous anthropogenic (human-caused) interference with the climate system.”

  35. After the COP, coalition of willing on fossil fuels?

    “three countries [Brazil, Colombia, The Netherlands] will lead the First International Conference on the Just Transition Away from Fossil Fuels, scheduled for April 2026, in Santa Marta, Colombia.

    The event aims to negotiate a Fossil Fuel Treaty and outline “equitable timelines” and “financial support” for a phaseout, according to organizers.”
