The current Australian government is repeatedly showing itself to be a Rogue state on climate change! – at Richmond, London
"The [Australian] government's decision to put $600 million towards a gas plant, in addition to allocating so much money in the budget towards gas and fossil fuels, will only drive us further into the climate crisis."

Dear @antonioguterres and @SelwinHart , as @COP26 will be the first COP in the new era of @LossDamage from human induced climate change, the relegation of this issue to a few words at the end is simply ignoring this reality. Time to appoint a Special Envoy for Loss and Damage ! – at Richmond, London
To ensure #COP26 is the turning point we all need, national leaders must use every single day ahead to rebuild trust, and boost cooperation and ambition.

From now there are no longer any purely 100% 'natural' extreme weather events. We have clearly entered the era of @LossDamage from human induced climate change! Expect an extreme weather record to be broken somewhere on the planet everyday from now on. Everyone everywhere act now – at Richmond, London
Words matter. Using ‘natural’ to describe disasters can give people the impression that disasters are inevitable, and that human agency can do little to prevent or mitigate their impacts. @HeadUNDRR bit.ly/33e6jZg

Less than two months for @COP26 ! Dear @AlokSharma_RDG , where is your champion for @LossDamage who can consult with parties on how to tackle this issue? Remember that the fate of how you deal with @LossDamage will determine the success/failure of @COP26 ! – at Richmond, London

Thanks @PlanB_earth for@#UKClimateLawsuit . It’s already revealed delays & chaotic decision making by government. Let’s hope it results in ratcheting UK long term climate ambition. teapawt.org/climatehome/status/101…

Counsel has highlighted the ‘embarrassing’ position of the Government, who maintain that more ambitious targets are unachievable. Meanwhile, the CCC and the wider international scientific community tasked with advising it say the opposite.
