What happened at the UN Climate Change #SB2021? Bangladesh on behalf of the Climate Vulnerable Forum called for Loss and Damage as mentioned in the "Paris Agreement" to become a standing item in every COP, commencing with #COP26 to be held in Glasgow in November 2021.

Despite commitments made in 2010, #biodiversity has further declined over the past decade. The #post2020 global biodiversity framework must aim to halt biodiversity loss by 2030. Our Issues Brief explains how ow.ly/MxFd50Fiygh

Some negative impacts of climate change are not quantifiable, i.e., NEL. Let us share our experiences through story telling and stand together for climate justice.

Let's be accountable to our future generations. #Bangladeshisleading #CVF #Actionplan #COP26

Peter Medway discusses how sharing knowledge can help to break down silos between DRR and CCA, and that better sequencing of policy-making, planning and research can facilitate integration.

Nearly 100 developing nations have endorsed a five-point plan for successful #COP26 climate talks in Glasgow, in November, calling on richer countries to accelerate emissions cuts and increase funding for vulnerable nations. climatechangenews.com/2021/07/15/dev… via Climate Home News

Just imagine how the poorest communities of the Global South are coping with intense and more frequent flooding and cyclones due to climate change! It's #unfair. Still the rich nations veto climate actions. Please have this in mind - no one is safe until everyone is safe.

Better late than never! But it needs to stay on the front page everyday!

Day 99 of the countdown to COP26 in the era of Loss&Damage Network : 118 People sadly lost their lives in flash floods in India while #G20Italy ministers fail to make progress! Everyone needs to do more everywhere, everyday!

Not only should Rt Hon Lord Alok Sharma and UK COP26 Presidency appoint a Special Envoy for Loss&Damage Network but so should António Guterres appoint one as well. Both of them could develop a pathway from COP26 to COP27 to put Loss&Damage Network firmly on the agenda at every COP! John Kerry

Is climate changing too fast? Or we are too late to realize it?

Good hearted actions are required. #planetandpeople #positivechange #cantwait #collectiveactions #COP26

Clearly we're not doing enough. Instead more humanitarian crises have been instigated. No more #intentional disasters. Stop #war #globalwarming #respect #promote #protect #humanrights #savehumanrightsdefenders #WorldHumanitarianDay2021

Addressing loss and damage requires additional funding. It's about #ClimateJustice, it's about compensating the climate change affected individuals and communities who contributed least to the problem.
