If there is one thing that unites us in today's divided world, it's that we're all feeling the heat. The planet is becoming hotter and so are oceans, which cause stronger storms, and more devastation. Disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation must be key policy goals.

#Climatechange magnifies and exacerbates existing inequalities and poverty. Research show that increasing extreme weather events are pushing vulnerable communities deeper into distress, pulling more than 100 million people into poverty by 2030. #EndPovertyDay

Extreme weather events are more frequent and severe, wealthy countries and high emitters must be financially accountable for the impact on developing countries tries and at-risk communities. #COP29

Climate action is needed now. At #COP29 developed countries should commit $1 trillion in annual public funding, & in grants to support at-risk developing countries without adding to their debt as they bear the least responsibility for the climate crisis. tinyurl.com/y8dtfakz

Extreme weather events are more frequent and severe. Floods, wildfires, and droughts, cost billions in damages, disruptions to livelihoods, human casualties. Inaction means degraded ecosystems, diminished agricultural productivity/natural resources, and food insecurity. #COP29

Climate change costs billions - it destroys infrastructure, disrupts livelihoods, diminishes agricultural productivity and access to resources. It amplifies inequalities, limiting opportunities for too many people across the world. #COP29Baku

Climate finance is not charity - it is justice for those who bear the brunt of climate impacts. It is responsibility of high emitters who contributed the most to the crisis. It is reducing risks for global instability, like migration and economic disruptions. #COP29Baku

Look closely, you need a magnifying glass to spot the women in the family photo of world leaders at #COP29Baku #wherearethewomen

Loss and Damage may be difficult to understand. It isn’t for those who were forced to move due to the impacts of climate change - they lost and were damaged, deeply, says Filippo Grandi #COP29Baku. In 2023 more people were displaced due to extreme weather events than of conflict.

Negotiations at #COP29Baku must deliver. CARE International calls on developed countries to scale up, providing $1 trillion in annual public support for #climatefinance as grants to start making amends for the impact of climate change that developing countries continue to suffer. #PayUp

Grants, not loans - developing countries bear the brunt of the climate crisis. They should not be put in the position to accept loans to tackle the crisis they are least responsible for.

Climate finance is a right for people who bear the brunt of the climate crisis they have not triggered and do not contribute to. Climate finance is not charity. CARE Climate Justice

#Malawi is highly vulnerable to #climate change: since 2010 it has experienced 17 major flooding events, 4 storm disasters, and 3 severe droughts. At #COP29Baku Parties should fill the Loss and Damage Fund to support developing countries to recover from the extreme weather events

200+ local leaders trained. 20 early warning committees established. Countless lives protected. In Somalia, the community focused project Dan Wadaag, is empowering communities to prepare, adapt & thrive in the face of climate disasters. #ClimateJustice bit.ly/EWSinSomalia

An Azerbaijani court sentenced #BahruzSamadov to 15 years in prison - 15 years for daring to be an anti-war voice, for thinking freely, writing critically, and refusing to bow to nationalism and autocracy. Fabricated lies to steal the freedom of a pro-peace soul.
