"Industry-Dominated COP28 'Unacceptable,' Says Vanessa Nakate"
by Jessica Corbett for Common Dreams

https://www.commondreams.org/news/vanessa-nakate

Quotes:
"As time runs out in Dubai, it feels as though the lifeboat of our shared humanity is sinking."
"It can be tiring to keep coming to these places and to be constantly disappointed by the decisions that are made," the campaigner said during a Tuesday press conference. "For this COP to be truly a success, it has to address fossil fuels." [and now, a day later, everybody says they did. JdeB]
"There are over 2,400 fossil fuel lobbyists that have a lot of control and power over this process," Nakate noted. "And we must call out that sabotage, we must call out the power. We must hold the fossil fuel companies accountable for the climate crisis."
"Many of our homelands are already being decimated by extreme weather. Huge changes are already with us and even more are inevitable—even if countries had agreed to a fossil fuel phaseout. So we must adapt."

"El éxito de la COP28 dependerá de si los líderes tienen o no el valor de pedir un abandono justo y equitativo de todos los combustibles fósiles, sin excusas ni excepciones.

Entonces, y sólo entonces, nuestros líderes tendrán la oportunidad de ocuparse de la gente que está en primera línea."

Mission Statement
[but don't hold me to that]

After the devastating Dutch elections [22-11-'23] I decided to dedicate my toots back to the original goal.
I care about a lot of issues, most global some national; but I won't be 'tooting' about them all.

First and formost I WANT to 'toot' about:
* #ClimateSolutions
Because I trust that most people reading know about the dreadfull future of climate change, I want to spread the, possible, solutions to a problem rather than reiterate on the problem.
* #ClimateJustice
One of those solution might be sueing the polluters or governments on human rights, violations or #Ecoside
* #ClimateAction
Action is by all means a solution.
* #ClimateEmergency
* #Climate

As said I want to focus on the global issue. I don't want to nitpick on too much principles. Like: "What's worse: eating cows or driving diesel?" Both are devastating behaviors of intitled rich people!
On the otherhand therefore I truly respect ANY effort to make a change for the better.

Most of all... I want to add instead of preach. Bring some bits of the puzzle to the table.

I'm NOT a scientist of any kind. I'm just a disabled old white guy typing on a desk reading and searching a lot.

I tend to toot 2 - 3 times a day, but that's NOT a promise.
I tend to follow anyone who 'retoots' or 'favourites' my toots. Forget it, I'm vain.

If any of my 'followers' want to opt out... this is your chance, as always.

[#ÀlairLibre 📺] Émission spéciale : climat, un monde en bataille

#GretaThunberg, #VanessaNakate, Sophie Binet... alors que le gouvernement a prononcé la dissolution des #SoulèvementsDeLaTerre, Mediapart réunit, avec Attac et 350.org, des figures de l’activisme climatique mondial et du #syndicalisme. Comment concilier impératif écologique et social dans le monde ? Comment éviter que la transition écologique ne creuse encore les inégalités ?

Eipä kohta palkita ketään suomalaista missään, kun #laitaoikeistohallitus toimeen käy.

#SannaMarin on palkittu #HelmutSchmidt -palkinnolla. Viime vuonna palkinnon sai #VanessaNakate, että kovassa seurassa ollaan.

Palkinnon antamista Marinille perustellaan muun muassa sillä, että #Marin on ollut uraauurtava eurooppalainen poliitikko, jolla on selkeät arvot ja oma poliittinen tyylinsä. Lisäksi palkintoraadin mukaan hän hoiti koronapandemiaa tehokkaasti.

It's a small thing but my #library accepted my donation of #VanessaNakate's "A Bigger Picture" and has shelved it prominently in the "New" section.

Maybe some young person will pick it up and be inspired to get involved with #climateActivism

#books #bookstodon

It is #blackhistorymonth and today we are honoring Vanessa Nakate, a Ugandan climate justice activist from Kampala who has inspired us and many more people across the globe! :vanessa: :earth:

Nakate started her journey as a climate activist in 2018 after becoming aware of the effects of climate change on the livelihoods of many Ugandans. Later, she founded the Youth for Future Africa and the Africa-based Rise Up Movement. In addition, she is the leader of Uganda’s first Fridays for Future climate strikes.

Thought her activism, she raises awareness about the implications and causes of climate change. She is a hardworking and determined activist who aims to bring the voices and experiences of people in the Global South to the global arena.

Beautiful and heart breaking message from #VanessaNakate in image (sorry, too long for alt text).
But I'm with her in saying Enough is Enough.

🇬🇧 Sign the cease & desist letter to fossil fuel industries. / 🇵🇹 Assine o apelo urgente aos executivos das empresas de energias fósseis / 🇫🇷 Signez l'appel urgent aux PDG des énergies fossiles / 🇪🇦 ¡Firma el llamamiento urgente a presidentes de petroleras!

#ClimateJustice with @gretathunberg ( #Sverige #Sweden ), #VanessaNakate ( #Uganda ) , #HelenaGualinga ( #Ecuador #Equador ) and @luisaneubauer ( #Deutschland #Germany )

🇬🇧 To Fossil Fuel CEOs:
This Cease and Desist Notice is to demand that you immediately stop opening any new oil, gas, or coal extraction sites, and stop blocking the clean energy transition we all so urgently need.
We know that Big Oil:
KNEW for decades that fossil fuels cause catastrophic climate change.
MISLED the public about climate science and risks.
DECEIVED politicians with disinformation sowing doubt and causing delay.
You must end these activities as they are in direct violation of our human right to a clean, healthy, and sustainable environment, your duties of care, as well as the rights of Indigenous people.
If you fail to act immediately, be advised that citizens around the world will consider taking any and all legal action to hold you accountable. And we will keep protesting in the streets in huge numbers.

Sign the cease & desist letter: https://secure.avaaz.org/campaign/en/davos_2023_loc/?copy

🇵🇹 Aos executivos de empresas de combustíveis fósseis:
Este Aviso de Cessar e Desistir é para exigir que vocês parem imediatamente de abrir novos campos de extração de petróleo, gás ou carvão, e parem de barrar a transição para a energia limpa que todos nós precisamos urgentemente.
Sabemos que as grandes empresas petrolíferas:
SABIAM há décadas que os combustíveis fósseis causam mudanças climáticas catastróficas.
MANIPULARAM a sociedade sobre a ciência climática e seus riscos.
ENGANARAM políticos com desinformação, disseminando dúvidas e causando atrasos para a transição verde.
Vocês devem pôr fim a essas atividades, uma vez que elas violam diretamente nosso direito humano a um meio ambiente limpo, saudável e sustentável, seus deveres de cuidado e os direitos dos povos indígenas.
Se vocês não agirem imediatamente, saibam que os cidadãos do mundo inteiro estão dispostos a tomar toda e qualquer ação legal para responsabilizá-los. E muitos de nós irão continuar protestando nas ruas.

Assine o apelo: https://secure.avaaz.org/campaign/po/davos_2023_loc/?copy

🇫🇷 Aux PDG de l'industrie fossile:
Nous vous mettons en demeure d’arrêter immédiatement l’ouverture de nouveaux sites d’extraction de pétrole, de gaz ou de charbon et de cesser de bloquer la transition vers les énergies propres dont nous avons toutes et tous besoin.
Nous savons que vos entreprises:
SAVAIENT depuis des dizaines d’années que les énergies fossiles sont à l’origine de changements climatiques catastrophiques
ONT TROMPÉ le public et les investisseurs sur les évaluations scientifiques des risques climatiques
ONT MENTI aux responsables politiques à l’aide d’informations visant à semer le doute et retarder les solutions.
Vous devez mettre fin à ces activités qui bafouent notre droit fondamental à un environnement propre, sain et durable et qui méprisent les droits des personnes autochtones.
Sans une action immédiate de votre part, les citoyens du monde entier envisageront de lancer des procédures en justice pour que vous répondiez de vos actes. Sachez aussi que nous continuerons à manifester dans les rues par milliers.

Signez l'appel: https://secure.avaaz.org/campaign/fr/davos_2023_loc/?copy

🇪🇦 A los presidentes de las empresas de combustibles fósiles:
Con este aviso de cese y desistimiento les exigimos que dejen inmediatamente de abrir nuevas zonas de extracción de petróleo, gas o carbón y de entorpecer la transición hacia las energías limpias que el mundo necesita tan urgentemente.
Sabemos que las grandes petroleras:
SABÍAN desde hace décadas que los combustibles fósiles son la causa de este catastrófico cambio climático.
MINTIERON a la sociedad sobre los datos científicos en torno al cambio climático y sus riesgos.
ENGAÑARON a los políticos a base de desinformación, lo que sembró dudas y retrasó la adopción de medidas.
Deben poner fin a estas actividades puesto que con ellas vulneran directamente tanto nuestro derecho humano a un medioambiente limpio, sano y sostenible como los derechos de los pueblos indígenas, y además incumplen su deber de diligencia.
Si no actúan inmediatamente, sepan que habrá personas de todo el mundo dispuestas a emprender las acciones legales necesarias para que ustedes rindan cuentas. Y seguiremos saliendo a la calle de forma masiva.

Who do you still miss in the #Fediverse?

Wen vermisst ihr noch im Fediverse?

I'll start:

#GretaThunberg :greta:
#VanessaNakate :vanessa:
African #FridaysForFuture groups :fff:

#TwitterMigration

#VanessaNakate, who was infamously cropped out of a picture of white European women, using this #deepfake tactic to draw attention to her issue is brilliant.

Mental Health Update.

Es geht mir gerade so gut wie schon lange nicht mehr, also quasi "normal". Das zeigt sich vor allem darin, dass ich genug Antrieb habe zu lesen. Ich lese 6 Bücher parallel:

📚 #VanessaNakate: A Bigger Picture
📚 @ende_gelaende: We Shut Shit Down
📚 #BenediktNarodoslawsky: Inside #FridaysForFuture
📚 #JanaSeelig: Minusgefühle
📚 @SheDrivesMobility: #Autokorrektur
📚 #KatharinaRoggenhofer: Ändert sich nichts, ändert sich alles

Kann ich daweil alle sehr empfehlen, auch wenn ich bei einigen noch nicht sehr weit bin. Inside FridaysForFuture hab ich schon mal gelesen, aber lese ich jetzt nochmal, weil ich selbst ein Buch über die österreichische #KlimaGerechtigkeitsBewegung schreiben will. Daneben schreibe ich auch eine #AutoBiographie, was mir hilft Dinge zu verarbeiten.

More and more #ClimateJustice groups and activists are joining the #Fediverse and they have more instances available to join than ever before:
