We have to change the way we produce and consume. We need to be just within our own communities and with others, including the vulnerable, the Island States and the developing countries. We need to change what we value, and we need to do it fast.
Wonderful to hear member of European Parliament acknowledge emitters who are responsible for 80% of the emissions should as a matter of responsibility and trust compensate vulnerable countries for the damage to climate, and that it is not aid, it is a matter of accountability.
We have nine years left to cut global emissions in half. The world has recognised the urgency of the climate crisis. World leaders now need to deliver otherwise they break the trust of citizens who rely on them to keep humanity safe and environment stable
The promise to protect world forest in 2014 at the New York COP, signed by 200 countries failed and this new pledge to than 100 leaders vowing to halt and reverse forest loss and land degradation by 2030 will also fail without the carbon tax.
We have more than enough funds to assist developing countries, At COP26 450 organizations in the financial sector, including banks, fund managers and insurance companies, in 45 countries pledged to move US$130 trillion of funds under their control into investments committed to net-zero emissions by 2050.
As per the IMF report, setting fossil fuel prices that actually reflect their true cost could cut worldwide CO2 emissions by over 30%, and thus, it would be a substantial step towards meeting the internationally agreed 1.5C target
According to the UNEP, methane has accounted for about 30% of global warming since the industrial revolution, with most coming from agriculture and livestock. Overall, it is a more powerful warming agent than carbon dioxide, but carbon dioxide lasts longer and is more abundant in the atmosphere. Scientists predict that by cutting methane emissions by 30% by 2030, the world can avoid 0.3 degrees Celsius of warming by 2040.
The UN said the world spends US$423 billion to subsidise fossil fuels each year, which is four times the amount needed to help poor countries tackle the climate crisis
UN says money allocated to fossil fuels is enough to cover a coronavirus vaccination for everybody across the world or to eradicate global extreme poverty

the global response to the climate crisis at COP26 was disappointing. NDCs will not keep global temperature rise below 2 degrees
the International Monetary Fund (IMF) says when the cost of fossil fuels to the environment is taken into account, the figure rises to US$6 trillion.
