BREAKING: Canada's #Budget2023 commits CAD 21 billion+ to clean electricity—a big win for 🇨🇦's energy transition. 👏
Still needed: stronger climate conditions to ensure 💰 is well spent + safeguards against continued fossil fuel support. 🧵1/4 #cdnpoli iisd.org/articles/statement/…

#Budget2023 recognizes that we can’t afford not to spend on climate action.
But limiting warming to 1.5°C requires that as renewables are phased into our energy system, fossil fuels are phased out.

🆕 study—1.5°C pathways underestimate how quickly developed countries must 📉 emissions.
Realistic limits on the pace of coal phase-out mean wealthy nations must cut emissions 50% faster than in IPCC pathways to limit warming

UN Biodiversity #COP15 achieved a "Paris moment" for the world's animal and plant life.
The agreement clinched today protects biodiversity and bolsters efforts to safeguard the world’s climate.
But governments alone cannot solve the climate and biodiversity crisis.

History was made today at #COP27 in Sharm El-Sheikh as parties agreed to the establishment of a long-awaited loss and damage fund for assisting developing countries that are particularly vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change.
Senators For Climate Solutions retweeted
"A fund for loss & damage is essential–but it’s not an answer if the climate crisis washes a small island state off the map–or turns an entire African country to desert." @AntonioGuterres on #COP27: "The world still needs a giant leap on climate ambition." un.org/sg/en/content/sg/stat…

Young people, like the ones I met at #COP27 today, have been relentless in demanding #ClimateAction.
The world owes them an enormous debt.
I am grateful for their persistence & courage - and I am proud to stand with them.

In yet another ominous climate change warning, atmospheric levels of the three main greenhouse gases -- carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide -- have reached new highs. This means our planet will continue to warm.
