In Guatemala, #migrants, farmers & #Indigenous People devastated by disaster & drought say: “We are forced to migrate. We don’t want to leave our homes but we have to because of #climatechange.” But for the Biden admin, border policy is climate policy climate-refugees.org/advocacy/2024/…

“We have found that very little dedicated funding is available to work on programming on #Displacement, #HumanMobility and #ClimateChange, and also that participation and direct access is particularly challenging for people who don't want to move.” ATLE, DisasterDisplacement.

Crux of #SB60 #climate finance discussions in Bonn highlighted in my take at the recent Climate Action Network International (CAN) press conference. Thank you Loss and Damage Collaboration (L&DC) for capturing it. Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty Initiative #ClimateJustice #ClimateEmergency

If a person was concerned about "open borders," the fact that the U.S. wreaks havoc in so many countries around the world--via corporate extraction, military power, disproportionate greenhouse gas emissions etc.--might be a good place to start.

UN experts strongly condemn outrageous disregard for Palestinian civilian lives by Israeli forces in #Nuseirat / #Gaza attack, incl through perfidy. At least 274 Palestinians were killed, incl 64 children & 57 women, & nearly 700 were injured. ohchr.org/en/press-relea…

Sudanese refugees are literally dying of heatstroke while fleeing war! Just stop and think about the utter immorality of that. Me, yesterday, on CGTN America’s aptly titled live show “The Heat”, discussing the very real human impacts of abysmal Global North efforts at the UN

Climate change is a significant driver of displacement around the world. It is estimated that over 215 million people could be impacted by 2050. Refugee & migration expert Amali Tower Amali Tower highlights the need for greater attention to the issue. #heat #climate #migration

As the UN climate talks in Bonn concluded with little agreement, CGTN America asked me to contextualize the impacts of the climate crisis. Here I share what farmers, migrants and Indigenous communities told me in Central America’s Dry Corrdor. #climatechange #migration

TODAY is the due date for the World Bank to submit documentation that proves if it is fit to host the Loss and Damage Fund. We are watching to ensure they deliver on their climate justice responsibilities with transparency and accountability. (1/9)

Earlier this year heavy rains and resultant flooding devastated parts of southern #Brazil, with significant loss of life and several hundred thousand still displaced. Check out our latest Spotlight by Yale Conservation Scholar Belen Gonzalez for more 📰⬇️ climate-refugees.org/spotlight/2024…

Sincerely no cynicism, but I’m sitting out the Summit of the Future and a lot of the forthcoming because while Gaza burns with impunity - Palestine, Lebanon & Syria - this system feels futile. A best, inadequate. #SummitOfTheFuture #UNGA #ClimateWeek #Gaza
