A deal that would see rich countries aim to provide $300 billion a year to help fund climate action in poor nations has been struck at Cop29 despite criticisms that the sum was too low. Eamon Ryan, Minister for Environment, Climate and Communications gives Newstalk Breakfast his assessment of COP24.

Hej! Freust du dich auch schon so auf unseren hyggeligen Winterwahlkampf? Mach es dir an unserem neuen Küchentisch Håbeck gemütlich. Von Satire Deluxe.

The United Nations Climate talks, also know as COP29, is wrapping in Baku Azerbaijan this week. In a disturbing trend over the past few years, the largest delegation at COP29 is the fossil fuel lobbyist delegation. At the same time the UN continues to have the talks in petrostates like Azerbaijan and the United Arab Emirates (COP28 in 2023) and limit civil society ability to message and take action. In our latest, Scott talks with Allie Rosenbluth (@allieeerose.bsky.social) with Oil Change International to discuss COP29, the fossil fuel delegation, social movements and resistance to genocide in Palestine at the climate talks. Bio// Allie (she/they) is the U.S. Program Co-Manager at Oil Change International, where she focuses on supporting grassroots organizing and strategic campaigns aimed at phasing out fossil fuels. Prior to joining Oil Change International, Allie spent seven years at Rogue Climate. There, she worked to stop the Jordan Cove LNG export terminal and pipeline, developed local and statewide energy justice campaigns, trained youth organizers, and coordinated mutual aid in response to the devastating Almeda Fire in Southern Oregon. She serves on the Breach Collective Board, co-founded the Rogue Action Center, and was a SustainUS Youth Delegate to COP24. In 2019, Allie received the Community Sentinel Award for Environmental Stewardship for her work stopping fossil fuel projects. She lives on occupied Takelma, Shasta, and Latgawa lands, also known as Talent, Oregon, where she enjoys gardening, backpacking, and spending time on the rivers. ---------------------------------------- Outro- "Green and Red Blues" by Moody Links// + Oil Change International: https://www.oilchange.org/ + Oil Change's "Behind the Barrel" Report (https://bit.ly/4g1t195) Follow Green and Red// +G&R Linktree: ⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/greenandredpodcast⁠⁠⁠ +Our rad website: ⁠⁠⁠https://greenandredpodcast.org/⁠⁠⁠ + Join our Discord community (https://discord.gg/uvrdubcM) +NEW: Follow us on Substack (https://greenandredpodcast.substack.com) +NEW: Follow us on Bluesky (https://bsky.app/profile/podcastgreenred.bsky.social) Support the Green and Red Podcast// +Become a Patron at https://www.patreon.com/greenredpodcast +Or make a one time donation here: ⁠⁠⁠https://bit.ly/DonateGandR⁠⁠⁠ Our Networks// +We're part of the Labor Podcast Network: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.laborradionetwork.org/⁠⁠ +We're part of the Anti-Capitalist Podcast Network: linktr.ee/anticapitalistpodcastnetwork +Listen to us on WAMF (90.3 FM) in New Orleans (https://wamf.org/) This is a Green and Red Podcast (@PodcastGreenRed) production.

Who's got a trillion dollars to spare this morning? That's the value of our new climate change tab from COP29 – the climate change conference. This year all the officials, the politicians, the experts, the industry, every man and his dog, has flown to Azerbaijan to lecture everybody not in the room about climate change. And they're already cranking the classics through the stage: We're at a turning point, the Paris Agreement's at a crucial tipping point because Donald Trump's going to pull out, even though we've been through this crucial tipping point before. This is the problem with COP-insert-number-here: no one really listens. Every year they make the same pilgrimage and give the same speech, and every year we shrug our shoulders and wonder why doesn't the number ever match the year? Shouldn't it be COP24? Oh well, back to the mall for another coffee at Robert Harris. I also need to pick up some presents from Kmart for the grandkids this Christmas. If the definition of insanity is doing the same thing every year over and over and expecting a different result, then these guys are beyond nuts. The big push this year is finance. They wanted rich countries, supposedly like ours, to pay $100 billion a year to poor countries to stop them from burning coal and adapting to climate change by 2020. Well, we missed that goal and now they want a trillion dollars a year. That's 1000 billion, or four Elon Musk's. Despite all the talk, and flying around, and threats, and end of day speeches, global emissions went up last year reaching record levels. Do we care about climate change? Yes. Enough to change our habits in a major way? No. We keep electing leaders to fix other things like inflation, and until that changes, or all of our houses actually do catch fire, we'll be at the mall down at Robert Harris not listening to Azerbaijan.

Les résultats du dernier rapport de la Convention des Nations unies sur la lutte contre la désertification sont alarmants : les sécheresses sont de plus en plus fréquentes et de plus en plus graves. Le Chili est l'un des pays les plus affectés et tente de répondre à cet immense défi en investissant massivement dans le recyclage des eaux usées et dans l'économie circulaire. À Santiago, visite dans la bio-usine de La Farfana.   De notre correspondante à Santiago,Santiago recycle aujourd'hui 100% de ses eaux usées, contre 3,6% en 2005. Le mérite revient aux trois bio-usines de la capitale, des stations d'épuration qui ne font pas que nettoyer les eaux usées : elles reconvertissent aussi tous les déchets en biogaz et en fertilisants. La première du genre est celle du quartier de La Farfana, créée en 2017, et appartenant à l'entreprise Aguas Andinas.« Nous avons réussi, progressivement, à diminuer la combustion de biogaz, afin de produire de l'énergie pour notre propre consommation et aussi produire du biométhane pour l'injecter dans le réseau de gaz naturel. Ce que nous générons, aujourd'hui, cela couvre les besoins d'environ 25 000 foyers, ce qui représente près de 100 000 habitants », détaille Edinson Caceres, responsable des opérations du site.Des eaux redevenues propresCe système a radicalement changé la gestion des eaux usées, qui étaient auparavant rejetées dans la rivière Mapocho, au-milieu de la capitale.

This is the third episode of a five-part series exploring the European energy crisis in the wake of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. If you haven't listened to the first two episodes, we recommend you start there. Even with a plan to phase down fossil fuel use, Poland still gets 70% of its electricity from coal. Can a country so dependent on coal make the transition to green energy effectively—and quickly? In this episode, we explore the consequences of Poland's historical reliance on coal. It's a story that begins at COP24 in Poland, where a coal miners marching band welcomed climate negotiators from around the world in 2018. From there, we visit a historical coal mining town in southwestern Poland, where we meet a man who digs for coal to sell on the black market in the wake of the Ukraine invasion.  Then, we take a look at the energy source that could help Poland cut the cord with coal: nuclear power. In an effort to gain energy security and reduce emissions, Poland is building its first reactors. But with Russia controlling much of the nuclear supply chain, is Poland trading one dependency for another?

Poland is sometimes characterised as the black sheep of EU climate policy: in 2019, more than 70 percent of the country's electricity was generated by coal. In the meantime, it is closing down coal mines and discussing building a nuclear power plant in order to diversify its energy supplies. What is Poland's climate policy and how is it evolving? Is the idea of Poland's characterisation as a scapegoat of the failure of international climate ambitions misleading? In this episode of the Sound of Economics, Bruegel's Guntram Wolff and Georg Zachmann are joined by Michał Kurtyka, the Minister of Climate and Environment of Poland and former President of the COP24 in Katowice, considered by many as a climate champion in the country. They discuss current climate policy in Poland, the social impact of decarbonisation, how the EU's recovery package can help smooth the climate transition, and the future of international climate diplomacy. Research mentioned:Bergamini, E. and G. Zachmann (2020) ‘Understanding the European Union's regional potential in low-carbon technologies', Working Paper 07/2020, BruegelWolff, G.

En este capítulo de Después de Mañana, Kike Mujica conversó con Marcelo Mena, ex ministro de Medio Ambiente y actual director del Centro Accion Climatica PUCV, quien se refirió a la relación que existe entre el cuidado a nuestro entorno y la pandemia que estamos viviendo, como también el beneficio a futuro de la descarbonización. Durante la conversación, Mena enfatizó que en este contexto, debemos evitar contribuir al cambio climático, agregando que una medida fundamental es la descarbonización. Asimismo, indicó que el 2020 no fue un año tan perdido en el área, ejemplificando que a finales de diciembre de 2018 al terminar la COP24, las proyecciones eran que el mundo se iba a calentar en más o menos 3 grados, sin embargo, con los compromisos que hay actualmente en curso la cifra no debería ser mayor a 2,1 grados.

In the 12th episode of Planet A, Dan Jørgensen talks with Poland’s Minister of Climate and Environment, Michał Kurtyka, about his experience as President of COP24 as well as his country’s goal to reduce coal power and build more renewable energy.This is no small feat, considering how important coal mining is to the Polish economy.Thus the overarching theme of this episode is the question of a “just transition” and its impact on Poland. The country has been the European heartland of coal mining for ages. When the Iron Curtain fell, more than 400.000 Poles worked in the coal industry. Today, that number is down to 80.000 people.Kurtyka talks about the challenges to retrain coal miners for other jobs. He argues it is not a mere question of providing new opportunities, but that the strong identity of mining communities makes the transition difficult.At the same time, Kurtyka has presented an ambitious plan to reduce coal power and deploy more renewable energy. He recently released ”PEP2040” - the plan for Poland’s energy policy to 2040 - aiming to reduce coal’s share of the country’s electricity generation from about 75% at present to 37-56% in 2030 and 11-28% by 2040. To reach the goal, Poland will build 8 GW capacity of offshore wind energy in the Baltic Sea. Drawing on Denmark’s extensive experiences with offshore wind, the Polish government is collaborating with its Danish counterpart.Kurtyka is a truly remarkable political figure. He started his career as a civil servant, but made the unusual transition from civil service to political office, when he was appointed as Poland’s first Minister of Climate and Environment in 2019.Prior to becoming a Minister, he worked as Poland’s State Secretary of Energy and the President of COP24 in 2018. In this capacity, he successfully guided the conference that led to the agreement of the so-called Katowice Rulebook.

In this edition of Talking Europe, we speak to Poland's first ever minister for climate. Warsaw is the only EU capital that has still not formally signed up to the EU's target of achieving "climate neutrality" by the year 2050. That means having a net of zero greenhouse gas emissions by that date. Michał Kurtyka is an economist, who chaired the COP24 climate summit in Katowice in 2018. He's also currently one of ten candidates for the role of next Secretary-General of the OECD, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.

Jhannel Tomlinson is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Geography and Geology, UWI, Mona whose research for the past four years, has sought to assess the capacity of Community-based Organizations in eastern Jamaica to effectively support climate action. In addition to her academic work, she is a youth climate activist who is a member of the Caribbean Youth Environment Network (CYEN), Jamaica, Country representative for YPARD Jamaica, and co- founder of Young People for Action on Climate Change (YPACC). Her involvement in climate action both through academia and activism, has further led to her being selected as: - A Youth Innovator to attend the Global Landscapes forum in Paris (2015) where she contributed to the development of an online assessment tool for landscape professionals. - The Jamaican Youth delegate both for COP24 in Poland and COP25 in Madrid (2018/19) where she participated in panel discussions and youth-led events. -Committee member for the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) Youth Forum (2019) where she contributed to the design of the youth blast and facilitated a training session on Youth, Climate Advocacy and Policy. Her passion in taking a stand against climate change, helps to showcase that the youth have a critical role to play and if we all work together.

Most surfers will tell you that their pastime is far more than a sport. It's a way of life. A way of being.Surfing's intimate relationship with the ocean and environment is clear. So it's no surprise that its premier competition, the World Surf League, is winning plaudits for its impactful and innovative sustainability initiatives.Through its nonprofit arm, WSL Pure (which has its own podcast), the World Surf League has committed to carbon neutrality, eliminating all single-use plastics from its events, and partnering with communities to conserve the coastal areas in which its athletes compete.Behind this drive is the organisation's SVP of ocean responsibility, Reece Pacheco, whom we first came into contact with in December 2018, when he represented the World Surf League at COP24 during the launch of the UNFCCC's Sports for Climate Action Framework.During this episode, Pacheco talks about his long and winding journey, from being an environmental filmmaker, lacrosse player and tech entrepreneur on America's North Atlantic coast, to heading up the sustainability operations for the World Surf League in California.He goes into depth about the World Surf League's environmental commitment, and discusses how the organisation has engaged brands like Corona and Ikea, as well as star athletes, to amplify its sustainability projects.“What's the story that we want to tell as a business, what do we want to be a part of? We want to be a part of change, we stand for a positive story,” Pacheco says. “Our mission as an organisation is to make the world a better place through the transformational power of surfing, and a big part of that is making sure we do our part for the environment.”

W dzisiejszej audycji gościmy Lidię Wojtal, ekspertkę z wieloletnim doświadczeniem w unijnych i globalnych negocjacjach klimatycznych. Uczestnictwo w COP25, który został przeniesiony z Chile do Hiszpanii, będzie problemem dla państw rozwijających się. Mogą nie mieć środków na wysłanie swoich negocjatorów, co negatywnie wpłynie na atmosferę rozmów - twierdzi Wojtal. Głównym przedmiotem sporów będą mechanizmy światowego handlu emisjami, czyli temat, którego nie udało się zamknąć podczas COP24 w Katowicach. Właśnie na handlu emisjami skupi się delegacja Unii Europejskiej. Prowadzi Robert Tomaszewski. Zapraszamy do słuchania.

This episode provides a brief overview of the key lessons learned in COP24 and how these will feed into COP25 this year. Carlos Fuller, International and Regional Liaison Officer of the Caribbean Community Climate Change Centre and Chair of the Alliance of Small Island Nations explains the guidelines that were developed for the Transparency Framework Talanoa Dialogue, the Paris Agreement Work Programme, the Global Stocktake and key decisions made on finance.This address was recorded at the 4th Gathering of the ParlAmericas Parliamentary Network on Climate Change: Advancing Climate Action through Legislation and Parliamentary Oversight, taking place in Paramaribo, Suriname from August 8th to 9th, 2019.

When The Sustainability Report first met Karina LeBlanc, she shared a platform with Prince Albert II of Monaco at COP24 in Poland, urging the sports industry to “wake up” and be part of the solution to climate change.It's a subject that became very close to her heart after her home country of Dominica (she moved to Canada when she was eight) was decimated by Hurricane Maria in 2017. During this episode, LeBlanc discusses the role sport can play in addressing climate change, and reveals details about a sustainability task force being established by CONCACAF – the North and Central American football federation – to tackle the challenge using its influence and resources.But most of all, the former Canadian international goalkeeper, who won more than 100 caps and represented her country at five FIFA World Cups, explains her role as head of women's football for the federation and the opportunities and challenges she's navigating to grow the game in a culturally diverse region.LeBlanc talks about CONCACAF's women's football strategy and enthuses about a “game-changing” 2019 FIFA World Cup – a tournament that saw players like Brazil's Marta and Megan Rapinoe of the US become household names by making waves off the field and performing with distinction on it.She also talks about attempting to channel the momentum generated by the landmark tournament to cement women's football as a key part of sporting culture in North and Central America.“I think for us the priority is trying to change the perception of young girls playing soccer,” LeBlanc explains. “In some of our regions it's still believed that young girls can't play. It's a challenge, but it's also an opportunity. And I think what this Women's World Cup has done is really put it at the forefront because a lot of men who thought women couldn't play football had to shut up. Men started watching and started to enjoy it.”

Simon Chambers has just come back from COP 24, the Annual United Nations Climate Change Conference in Katowice, Poland. The conference just ended on the weekend. The conference was scheduled to take place between December 2 and 14 but went into overtime to resolve important outstanding issues. Simon is Head of Communications at the ACT Alliance, a coalition of 151 churches and faith-based organisations working together in over 125 countries. Unlike some of the far right churches we hear about, the membership of ACT Alliance consists of churches which do believe that climate change is real, and that faith based groups should be part of the dialogue.Their ACT for Climate Justice Now campaign aims to bridge the technical, moral and ethical perspectives on climate justice. AT COP24 it mobilized members to safeguard the integrity of creation. On today's rabble radio, he talks to rabble radio executive producer Victoria Fenner from his office in Toronto to share his perspective on what was accomplished. Simon estimates that there were about 28,000 people at COP 24. He says that being at COP is a rare opportunity to be together with people who are passionate about climate work, though they're not all on the same side or have the same solutions. The language and terminology can be very difficult for non specialists to understand, so that's one of the reasons why he was there. One aspect of his job is to communicate to his stakeholders and the general public, translating language which is often dense, scientific and complicated.  And a big part of his job is about bringing the voices of the world's vulnerable population into the discussion about climate change.

It's been a big year. In the cultural awareness and response to climate change, in dramatic moments, slow-burning stories, trends, macro-enomic factors. Sadly, it's also been a big year for emissions. But it was also the year that a new platform launched, that lets people from all backgrounds talk about how they're encountering, and grappling with, climate change. For the whole team behind Climactic, this has been a monumental year. And so we want to say thank you for joining us on this wild ride. Mark and Rich break down the year, the highlights and learning, and we cover a topical subject, COP24. Join us! And see you next year, January 10th. Special Guest: Dr. Tobias Geiger.

COP24 has come to a close with a bare consensu on a set of rules to curb climate change. There have been changes in the political world since the 2015 Paris Accord, which may have affected the results of the conference. And there are questions about the proposed "climate damages tax." Dr. Tim Ball explains more.  Guest: Dr. Tim Ball, climatologist and author of 'The Deliberate Corruption of Climate Science' See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's easy to get lost in the argument over who needs to do the most to stop global warming, but the fact is, everyone needs to do their bit and “we're all responsible.” That's one of the guiding principles for Satya Tripathi of India, who in this latest Lid Is On podcast from UN News, from the crucial COP24 climate change conference in Poland, says we need to focus on bettering our immediate environment and taking collective responsibility for the planet. In his role as Assistant Secretary-General for the UN environment agency, UNEP, in New York, he's been taking part in talks over the future of climate action in Poland, and explained to our Yasmina Guerda, what India has been doing to fight global warming, region by region.

This story originally appeared on Grist and is part of the Climate Desk collaboration. There's a specter hanging over the COP24 climate talks, happening this week in the small city of Katowice, Poland. It's not the goalpost-moving report that the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change released two months ago about the need to limit warming to 2.7 degrees Fahrenheit (instead of 3.6 degrees). It's not the conspicuous absence of prominent U.S.

In Katowice, Poland, delegates from around the world have gathered to discuss how to curb emissions of greenhouse gases. The intent is to meet the goals that emerged from the 2015 Paris United Nations Climate Summit. But this year there's a new top dog at the table. The United States, led by a president who doesn't believe in climate change or the scientists who study it, will take a back seat at this month's climate summit, known as COP24.

As hundreds of world leaders, policymakers and climate experts meet in Poland to discuss how best to address some of the world's most pressing climate challenges, edie has launched a new series of podcast episodes which will round-up all of the key developments and major announcements for businesses, in under 10 minutes.

Will equity have a place in the UN Climate Talks in Poland? Photo copyright Extinction Rebellion. The Fourth National Climate Assessment, which was made public on Nov. 23, paints a grim picture of an United States that is already bearing the social and economic brunt of a warming world. Coming as it did, just weeks after a new UN report warning of that catastrophic effects of climate change are likely to hit much sooner than thought unless governments take extraordinary collective action, and just eight days ahead of the latest round of global climate negotiations in Katowice, Poland, how exactly is this report going to affect the talks. Terra Verde host and Earth Island Journal editor Maureen Nandini Mitra discusses this as well as what environmental groups are expecting from the negotiations, which begin on Sunday, with Tom Athanasiou, director of the activist think tank EcoEquity and author of the upcoming book Everybody Knows: Climate Emergency in the New Age of Inequality, and Jesse Bragg, media director of Corporate Accountability, which works to implement good governance policies at the UN Climate Treaty and monitors the activities of the fossil fuel industry. The post The Dire New UN Climate Report and What Can We Expect from COP24 in Katowice – November 30, 2018 appeared first on KPFA.

La transizione ecologica, come renderla socialmente equa e sostenibile? Il caso “Macron-gilet jaunes” ripropone la questione dopo che la tassa francese sui carburanti fossili ha scatenato dure proteste. A Memos ne abbiamo parlato con Rossella Muroni, deputata LeU ed ex presidente di Legambiente, e con Gianni Silvestrini, presidente del Kyoto Club. Altra domanda decisiva che Memos ha girato ai due ospiti: la democrazia è in grado di reggere l'urto dell'urgenza ecologica? No, se le risposte all'emergenza sono quelle egoistiche alla Trump, con il ritiro degli Usa dagli accordi di Parigi. Di quegli accordi si discuterà nei prossimi giorni a Katowice, in Polonia, dove si riunisce Cop24, la Conferenza Onu sul cambiamento climatico. La puntata di oggi è stata chiusa da Roberta Carlini, giornalista e saggista, e dal suo “messaggio nella bottiglia”.
