“Your voice, your action, your commitment is more necessary than ever.”
– UN Secretary-General António Guterres told young climate activists at the COP28 climate conference, encouraging them to keep up the pressure and to continue holding leaders accountable.

“One of the most important lessons I learnt in my life of struggle for freedom and peace is that in any conflict there comes a point when neither side can claim to be right and the other wrong, no matter how much that might have been the case at the start of a conflict.”

“الوسيلة الوحيدة لتوفير مساحات آمنة في غزة،
تكمن في وقف الجحيم الذي يهطل من السماء كالمطر.

نتحدث عن مئات الآلاف الذين يتنقلون في ظل قصف واسع النطاق.

وقف إطلاق النار وحده هو الكفيل بإنقاذ حياة الأطفال في غزة”.

يُقتل طفل كل 10 دقائق في غزة في المتوسط.

منظمة الصحة العالمية تؤكد الحاجة لوقف مستدام لإطلاق النار:

“أكثر من 600 ألف شخص في جنوب غزة تحت أوامر الإخلاء. أجبر ما يقرب من نصفهم على مغادرة منازلهم سابقا.

لا يوجد أماكن إيواء يمكن أن يتوجهوا إليها، بما في ذلك ملاجئ الأونروا التي تجاوزت طاقتها الاستيعابية”.

“من بين الكثيرين من المدنيين، بمن فيهم نساء وأطفال، الذين قُتلوا في الحرب في غزة، أكدت الأونروا مقتل 130 من موظفيها منذ 7 تشرين الأول/أكتوبر.

لم يسلم أحد. إنها مأساة إنسانية مدمرة لا نهاية لها”.

— المفوض العام للأونروا فيليب لازاريني

أكثر من طفل واحد بين كل خمسة يعيش في فقر في 40 دولة من أغنى دول العالم

“آثار الفقر على الأطفال مستمرة ومدمرة وتعني أنهم قد يكبرون دون ما يكفي من الطعام المغذي أو الملابس أو اللوازم المدرسية، فهو يمنع إعمال الحقوق ويمكن أن يؤدي لتدهور صحتهم”.

منسقة الشؤون الإنسانية في الأرض الفلسطينية المحتلة تحذر من

“سيناريو مرعب على وشك أن يتكشف في غزة، لا تستطيع في ظله العمليات الإنسانية الاستجابة للاحتياجات”.

وقالت لين هاستينغز إن الظروف الضرورية لتوصيل المساعدة إلى سكان غزة منعدمة، وإن “ما نشهده يتجسد في مراكز إيواء بلا إمكانيات، ونظام صحي منهار، وانعدام مياه الشرب النظيفة، وعدم وجود الصرف الصحي الملائم، وسوء التغذية، يعد الصيغة التي تُدرس عن ظروف انتشار الأوبئة وحدوث كارثة صحية عامة”.

وأشارت لين هاستينغز إلى التقارير التي أفادت بمقتل 700 فلسطيني منذ استئناف الأعمال القتالية في الأول من كانون الأول/ديسمبر. وقالت إن العمليات العسكرية الإسرائيلية امتدت إلى جنوب غزة، مما أجبر عشرات آلاف الفلسطينيين إلى اللجوء إلى مناطق تواجه ضغطا متزايدا فيما ينتابهم اليأس في السعي للعثور على الغذاء والماء والمأوى والأمان.

Different people have different energy footprints as do different countries. These footprints have continued to grow. With some of us having footprints 5000 times as big as others, the potential to grow our footprints is huge. Renewables could supply our past energy demands now, but our energy demands have simply grown as supply increased. T.v.s, phones, data centers, daily communtes, a.c., overseas holidays, etc.

Renewable technologies are made from finite resources with finite lifespans. They have limits and the more we use up now the less time they can be used for.

As new sources of energy have come on line our businesses and people have just increased consumption of fossil fuels and the new sources as we try to stay “competitive.”

Halving our population doesn’t matter if we increase our consumption hundred fold to match that of the richest 1% and they increase theirs to match the richest 0.1%.

Unless we develop effectively unlimited energy needing very limited resource input, the only way to meet our climate goals is to cap and ration energy consumption worldwide. Work out what we can sustain per person and give everyone that same cap regardless of wealth. The less green the smaller the cap.

We need to promote greater energy efficiency, not greater consumption. Cleaner more sustainable production not greater production.

The other option is we adapt to a spiral of climate change, increasing energy demands to do so until our economy or ecosystem collapses.

If you are not talking about meaningful goals and penalties get finance will remain slow to shift. The current rate of transition to renewables/clean energy is directly related the profits generated for shareholders.

We need verified emission data that has high coverage and that has the entire product life time calculated and is comparable to their peers. The longer we stick with black box ESG ratings that are shown to be not correlated with actual sustainability, the longer we are trying to solve this thing with your eyes closed. We need data points that show what the companies are doing so that the financial markets can figure out where the least amount of sustainability risks are.

Two economists/financiers talking about how much money they can make fixing a problem that financiers/economists made.

The problem is capitalism. You can’t really solve the problem with just more ‘better’ capitalism.
