Climate Justice Charter (@cjchartersa) 's Twitter Profile Photo

When the GNU statement of intent emerged, it had a glaring omission. There was no mention of tackling the climate crisis and the urgent need to take decisive measures to protect the most vulnerable from climate harm.

This is despite the fact that the document was drafted while floods had displaced 3000 people in the Eastern Cape province and a tornado had destroyed communities in Tongaat, Kwa-Zulu Natal. These are not natural disasters. These are climate shocks.

We call on all climate justice forces and civil society to unite and ensure that the national dialogue process envisaged in the GNU document of intent is all-inclusive and tackles the climate emergency.

Sign this petition and help call for a Climate Emergency Social Contract (CESC) to be the overarching framework for the GNU, by working with civil society, driven by the people and workers. Sign the petition: chng.it/ZjMM8tycVf
