Vulnerable nations call for climate ’emergency pact’ at Glasgow summit

Representatives of vulnerable nations and communities called for a climate “emergency pact” at the COP26 climate conference in Glasgow, Scotland.

….

In a statement on behalf of the CVF, Hasina called on major greenhouse gas emitters to submit and implement “ambitious” nationally determined contributions. The CVF also called for developed nations to meet their climate finance commitments of putting $100 billion toward the climate crisis, divided equally between mitigation and adaptation efforts.

The CVF also called on those developed nations to equitably distribute sustainability and renewable energy technology, keeping in mind balance with those countries’ development needs. Lastly, the nations said any pact should address existing climate-related damages, including the migrants and refugees created by environmental displacement.

United Nations Secretary General António Guterres, in his own remarks, said the allocation of climate finance must do a better job of improving resilience and adaptation for those most vulnerable to climate change’s impacts.

“Currently, just a quarter of climate finance flows towards adaptation — a mere $20.1 billion dollars,” Guterres said. “It is estimated that the adaptation costs to developing countries could rise to as much as $300 billion dollars a year by 2030.”

Uber-rich Bezos was at COP26 having flow there in his private jet saying how he had an epiphany about the climate after seeing it from space on his climate-destroying space tourism flight …

On the third day of the COP26 climate conference, Surangel Whipps Jr., president of the Pacific island nation of Palau, reprimanded the leaders of wealthy countries, telling the world’s biggest greenhouse gas emitters: “You might as well bomb our islands.”

“We see the scorching sun is giving us intolerable heat, the warming sea is invading us, and the winds are blowing us every which way,” Whipps said Tuesday. “Our resources are disappearing before our eyes and our future is being robbed from us.”

“Frankly speaking,” he continued, “there is no dignity to a slow and painful death—you might as well bomb our islands instead of making us suffer only to witness our slow and fateful demise.”

Apologies, technical issues

Spread the love
Apologies, it's unlikely that I can bring you a COP26 news review tonight due to technical issues. I am extremely low-budget - I'm working on a shoestring and that string has broken tonight. I'm very glad that I have a very low impact on the climate as a consequence of being so poor. No private jets for me and I very rarely drive (a friend's car). I hope to continue the COP26 news reviews asap. In the meantime, I suggest you use some search enginess.

Love this world, lets do all we possibly can to protect her, all her people and all her diverse nature.

What is it to be a Fascist?

Spread the love

Fascism is about authoritarian rule and it is regarded as opposed to democracy.

So Fascism is about authoritarianiam, following a strong leader. I don’t think that Boris can do that but Priti is going for it.

5.40 But then Priti is Murdoch (Press baron old fart hopefully dying soon :)’s choice little.

I’ve got it – little Fascist tool. Hiya Ruppie, nice to have your attention. Have a good afterlife ;)

Hey Ruppie, I’ve said it before, but hope you die soon. Best wishes but you should know that you’ve always been a total cnut. I want you to know that when you die ;)

You can’t say that to family, can you? [ed: He might hear ;)

ed: Fascism is about people submitting to the authority of some twat with a loud mouth, uniforms, ribbons, banners and shiny buttons. [ed: They can do it without the shiny buttons and all that …]

[Fascism can do without the buttons. It is about submission to and an acceptance of a right-wing ideology where there is an acceptance and acquiesence of a corrupt right-wing ideology, an unquestioning acceptance of a corrupt, perverse authority]. There’s also the issue of a totally flaccid non-opposition.

or crap hair

I don’t think that crap hair does it actually

and Priti I think you need a proper Mesamorph body to be respected as a proper Fascist really sorry.

Oh dear :)

Bye PP, C’est la vie.
