This spectacle called Bhalswa landfill fire in North Delhi. There's no official statement on environmental & health hazard (unimaginable) caused by this yet. Our landfills are still unengineered, leaving them highly vulnerable. Jyoti Yadav Climate Home News Bharati Chaturvedi Mayur Shekhar Jha

#ClimateCrisis #ClimateAction #COP27

There are so many blocked websites in Egypt at #COP27 , that it is noticeable and hard for us to work. We can't use our Earth Uprising International Medium site, because Medium is blocked. News agencies we refer to are blocked. There is no climate action without truth and information.

$190 bil worth subsidies given across #G20 in 2021 alone on hydrocarbons. High subsidies lead 2 sustained - even increased consumption, this amount is >50% of the financing required 2 support developing nations 2 fight #climatechange, of which just <10% has been provided. #COP27

And the world leaders took note, and fixed the problem, and we all lived happily ever after.

Morgan Stanley predicts a “coming decade of outperformance” for #India: “We forecast that India will be the third-largest economy by 2027, with its GDP more than doubling from the current $3.4tn to $8.5tn over the next 10 years.” ft.com/content/489cc9…

Outcomes of climate summits and negotiations would be very different if only those under 40 years of age were to participate and take decisions. Perspective, politics, and priorities are very different for the old and the young. #ClimateCrisis #COP27 #ClimateAction

My economics professor at grad school (whose doctoral mentor was the great economist, Paul Samuelson, at MIT) had once said that we can solve the #ClimateChange problem if the world planted + maintained 100 billion trees. Simple.

Oh mother! And worse, no one will be alive to see the climate catastrophe play out. #COP27

US is responsible for a fifth of global cumulative #carbon #emissions. It's really hard to debate with the idea of common but differentiated responsibility (CBDR). Very informative thread by Simon Evans on global GHG emissions landscape. #climatechange

Countries at #COP27 pledged funding to the Systematic Observations Financing Facility (SOFF) to close the gaps in essential weather and climate data for the most vulnerable countries to strengthen resilience. More via World Meteorological Organization: bit.ly/3hxrdeL
