For far too long, the States most responsible for the climate crisis have failed to lead in addressing it, paying up, and remedying for the harm they have caused. #PayUp #ClimateReparations bsky.app/profile/lien...

One of the key arguments brought by countries during the historic #ClimateJusticeAtTheICJ hearings on the legal obligations of States in the context of #ClimateChange is #ClimateReparations. "Can legal consequences be triggered about climate harm?" The answer is YES 🤫 A 🧵👇

👍 BUT luckily many countries, including 🇻🇺🇧🇫🇫🇯🇿🇦🇦🇱🇨🇷🇦🇬🇧🇸🇨🇴🇧🇴🇵🇭, persuasively set forth the legal basis for #ClimateReparations proportionate with climate harms [including structural measures beyond compensation & urged debt relief]. bsky.app/profile/ciel...

Week 1⃣ of the #ClimateJusticeAtTheICJ hearings drew to a close. Yesterday's hot takes: 🇯🇲🇲🇻🇵🇬 demanded structural #ClimateReparations 🇰🇼 outrageously defended #FossilFuels, rejecting the phase-out obligation Read the full recap in our daily debrief: www.ciel.org/wp-content/u...

👍 There is no getting around the fundamental principle of law that where there is a breach of duty & injury ensues, there is a corresponding obligation to cease the wrong and repair the harm. #ClimateReparations #RightToRemedy

#ClimateReparations: 👎 Big polluters claim that the issue of legal consequences doesn't even arise because it isn't possible to prove an individual State’s breach of international legal obligations or to link that breach with specific #Climate harms.

In brief: Climate-vulnerable nations demanded comprehensive #ClimateReparations, including structural measures beyond compensation & urged debt relief, countering arguments that the causal link between harm and polluters is too complex to address legally.

🇻🇺 In Vanuatu, UN Special Rapporteur Elisa Morgera called on the ICJ to recommend remedies like restitution, rehabilitation, and guarantees of non-repetition, implemented through inclusive processes involving affected communities. #ClimateReparations

The Marshall Islands stresses the need for #ClimateReparations. "Where there's a right, there's a remedy". The climate harm caused by the combined emissions of certain States is posing an existential threat to the planet; those States must, therefore, repair & remedy these harms.

Yesterday's session of the #ClimateJusticeAtTheICJ hearings closed with Fiji demanding: 🚫Cessation of harmful conduct in the context of the #ClimateCrisis 💰Eforceable #ClimateReparations. "Where else can Fiji turn to seek justice, if not this court?" they asked!

It's high time for #ClimateReparations. Without concrete remedy, #ClimateJustice & equitable multilateralism will remain hollow. International cooperation is crucial, yet it must be paired with tangible policies that explicitly address harm & hold those responsible to account.

The climate crisis is a human rights crisis. Just a few days ahead of ICJ's historic climate hearings, read how: 🎯 The #RightToRemedy applies to #LossAndDamage in the context of escalating climate harms. 🎯 States can deliver meaningful #ClimateReparations. www.ciel.org/reports/clim...

Nachtrag: weil ich gestern in der Tagesschau das Wort "Geberländer" gehört habe, als es um die reichen Länder geht, diejenigen, die über Jahrhunderte die Atmo zugemüllt haben: *wir* sind hier nicht Geberländer, wir sind die Schuldner in dem Kontext.

"It’s our money. You’ve been taking it for so long, hundreds of years, hundreds of years taking our resources, hundreds of years taking our land, occupying us, mixing wars with all your development, mixing war with private businesses. And you don’t want us to get our money back. Give us our land back. Give us our share."
"This is a debt, an obligation that the Global North owes to the Global South."

Thousands March in #London to Demand End of #FossilFuels and #GazaGenocide

'We won't stop until political leaders #divest from #war and destruction—and invest in a just, #ecological, and equitable transition,' said one campaigner.

Brett Wilkins
Nov 16, 2024

"Thousands of #ClimateJustice advocates took to the streets of London on Saturday to demand the U.K. government 'end its reliance on fossil fuels, commit to paying #ClimateReparations, and end its complicity in the #genocide in #Gaza.'

"Organizers said more than 60 groups—including #ExtinctionRebellion, Friends of the Earth [#FOE], #Greenpeace, #AmnestyInternational U.K., #PalestineSolidarity Campaign, #WarOnWant, and #JustStopOil — took part in the March for Global Climate Justice. The demonstration took place amid yet another shambolic United Nations #ClimateChange Conference and as #Israeli forces continue a war on Gaza that U.N. experts this week called 'consistent with the characteristics of genocide.'

"More than two dozen associated #protests were held in cities and towns across #Britain and #Ireland, including #Dublin, #Edinburgh, #Manchester, and #Sheffield. Over 150 actions around the world are planned for what organizers are calling a #GlobalDayOfAction for Climate Justice on Saturday.

"'Thousands of us united today in a historic mobilization on the streets of London, across #GreatBritain, and worldwide to demand an end to the era of fossil fuels and an end to the genocide in Gaza,' Climate Justice Coalition national coordinator Angus O'Brien said in a statement."

It's good to see #WarOnWant pushing for UK to meet its obligations on climate funding in the global South and making the link with Britain's bloated military spending.

OK Keith, there's the matter of climate reparations too.
