COP27 Part 3 - We'll be back!

COP27 Part 3 - where do we go from here?

  • We grew bigger and louder
  • We need so much more in this emergency
  • We’ll be back!

COP27 Part 2 - No other progress

  • There was some success on money, but not much on anything else
  • No new emissions cuts agreed
  • There were a few small gains here and there


“This COP has been a misspent fortnight. At a summit held on African soil - home to some of the most climate-vulnerable communities in the world - stories of suffering have been many, but real signs of progress have been few. We need so much more if we’re to see justice for people living in poverty, who are the ones counting the cost of inaction as a result of a crisis they didn’t cause. It’s deadly to stand still in the face of a rising tide.” Fred Njehu, Tearfund, Kenya 

COP27 Part 1 - Some good news on money

  • One big step forward to celebrate - agreeing to set up a fund for Loss and Damage
  • No further forward on the promised $100 billion a year
  • Two smaller steps forward - agreeing the development banks should fund more climate action, and the next Just Energy Transition Partnership.
