"You know, nobody's working on their Plan A... I'm in the middle of the alphabet somewhere - but most people are on Plan B, Plan C, Plan D - particularly when you get to my age. So, I think that's healthy for people to realize. Your first act doesn't have to be your only act.”   In this episode, WomenHeard host Julie Hochheiser Ilkovich speaks with Liz Georges, Senior Director of Climate Communications at WWF. The World Wildlife Fund works in nearly 100 countries to advocate for sustainable policies and deliver innovative solutions that protect local species and their habitats. Liz started out at a PR agency, then pivoted to environmental law while volunteering at the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago. After her legal career, she worked in membership and then communications at nonprofits: Washington Project for the Arts, the Cheetah Conservation Fund, and The Nature Conservancy.  As an executive in climate communications, Liz puts the audience at the core of WWF's outcomes and thinks about the best way to engage the public in their mission-driven priorities. She also keeps the pulse on environmental movements. WWF attends the UN Climate Change conference, delving into NDCs (Nationally Determined Contributions) for emission reductions that reduce the effects of climate change. Listen to this episode for why the #WorkplaceAuntie thinks you should be loud about your priorities – plus, the important advice from Liz's first job that's stayed with her throughout her career.

An international development expert from University of Galway is to support the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) assessment of climate change and its impact. Dr Una Murray, Director of the MA in International Development Practice in the University's College of Arts, Social Sciences and Celtic Studies and a Principal Investigator with the University's Ryan Institute, will provide advice on the topics of climate change impacts, adaptation and vulnerability. The UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was founded in 1988 and provides the evidence to the governments of the world through comprehensive Assessment Reports about knowledge on climate change, its causes, potential impacts on people and the planet and response options. International experts are invited to its Working Groups to synthesise all available evidence on climate change and identify how best to reduce emissions, how to make societies more resilient and how to ensure a just transition for those most affected by climate change. Minister for Environment, Climate, Communications and Transport, Eamon Ryan, T.D., welcomed Dr Murray's appointment and said, "Governments rely heavily on the gold standard evidence on climate change that is provided by the IPCC. This is critical to ensure our policies are evidence-based and to reduce risk of any maladaptive policies in response to climate change." Ireland has well recognised experts who can contribute to this evidence. We are also beginning to shake off our label as a climate laggard and are developing a reputation instead as a country that is showing that climate action can and is working. This is driven by the progress we are making nationally in reducing our own emissions, but also because of the calibre of the academics, scientists, researchers and policy experts we have working in the field." Professor Peter McHugh, Interim President of University of Galway, said: "Dr Murray's engagement with one of the leading climate change bodies at the UN is testament to both her insight and expertise on international development issues as well as our university's strategic commitment to sustainability and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The invitation for Dr Murray to advise on the issues of climate and its impact on people and society is a testament to the value we place on research-led excellence for the public good." Dr Murray said: "This is a great honour for me but also for University of Galway. One of my key aims is to provide IPCC contributions in relation to climate change and human migration. At the University of Galway, my research team is working on climate change, migration and social protection which I have presented at the UN Climate Summits over recent years. My team's research advocates for climate adaptive social protection as a key policy response to help tackle climate vulnerability and reduce inequalities." Dr Murray's expert advisory role is with the IPCC's Working Group II, which will be scoping the next IPCC Seventh Assessment Report (AR7), focusing on climate change impacts, adaptation and vulnerability. The IPCC AR7 Scoping Meeting is being organised from December 9-13, in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

COP29: UN envoy calls for countries to agree on new climate financing dealLebanon's food insecurity ‘set to worsen' amid ongoing conflict: WFPSouth Sudan election delay offers time for democracy to take root: top UN official

‘COP' stands for ‘Conference of the Parties,' a global gathering where countries negotiate and make decisions under UN conventions on climate change, biodiversity, and desertification. More than a conference, COP includes structured scientific, technological, and policy-driven discussions, involving ministers and experts from each country. This process creates frameworks and agreements that countries adopt to address pressing environmental issues like climate change such as the Paris Agreement. In this episode, host Erika Schiller is joined by Nathalie Flores, Vice-Chair of the Subsidiary for Science and Technology Body of UN Climate Change, to discuss the role of COP in advancing international climate policy and action. With COP29 in Azerbaijan in November, their conversation provides timely insights into what the event is, why it matters, and how it sets the stage for global agreements and national commitments.  Nathalie explains the significance of Article 6 of the Paris Agreement in establishing markets for emissions reduction and discusses how countries meet climate targets through Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs).

Cristina Gamboa is CEO of the World Green Building Council, an influential local-regional-global network focused on “the transformation to sustainable and decarbonized built environments for everyone, everywhere.” She is an economist with a background in sustainability, policy, and multi-stakeholder partnerships; as such, she is a trusted convener in international settings such as UN Climate Change summits and the World Economic Forum. Cristina is from Colombia and lives in London. Before she came to this work, she was an academic economist with a focus on international affairs and a passion for communicating. “Collectively, we've had a huge win, getting buildings on the global climate agenda. But with visibility comes responsibility,” Cristina says. “Now we have to make sure that the private sector is empowered to deliver progress.” She says that the finance community understands that buildings are the largest global asset class, and this is an opportunity. “If we get this right, they can invest in better assets,” she says. “If we work with the finance community and we find ways to delink emissions from growth and, for example, make sure that the retrofit economy really lifts off, we could unlock the benefits of a carbon-free and circular economy.”Great strides have been made, she says, but there is work to do: “We still don't have aggregated data to show change at scale. This is a gap that makes our movement vulnerable. The sooner we can quantify benefits, the better.”

THE DEVIL WILL ACTUALLY BE IN THE DETAILS UN CLIMATE CHANGE NEGOTIATIONS KICK OFF

In episode 307, Kestrel welcomes Rachel Arthur, a strategist, journalist, and the Advocacy Lead for Sustainable Fashion at the United Nations Environment Programme, to the show. Rachel is the lead author of The Sustainable Fashion Communication Playbook, which was published earlier this year by the United Nations Environment Programme and the UN Climate Change Fashion Charter. “Communicators themselves, on a couple of levels, have had the ability to participate and to contribute I think is what I'm looking for here, and that is the first of all. But they themselves, by being communicators, have a skill set that is missing in the sustainability space, which is around this notion of making something desirable, creative — making people fall in love with things. That is fundamentally what fashion does, and we need to redirect it toward sustainability.” -Rachel Are you a communicator in the fashion space? Whether it's through your work or everyday life, communicating about sustainability and fashion can be challenging and complex.  This week's guest is the lead author of a new framework for fashion communicators – it's called the Sustainable Fashion Communication Playbook, and it's a deep dive into why we must all play a role in shifting the narrative.  The Playbook provides actionable steps communicators can take including: establishing a foundation with verifiable information, acknowledging that fashion is integral in building culture, and highlighting the role storytellers must play in advocating for change. We address head-on one of fashion's biggest issues today – misinformation. As the report highlights, A 2020 study by the European Commission found 53.3% of environmental claims communicated in the EU at large were vague, misleading or unfounded. And a fashion specific report by Changing Markets from 2021 finds that 60% of sustainability claims by European fashion giants are “unsubstantiated” and “misleading”. The Playbook recommends that one way communicators can break the cycle of misinformation is by leading with science. While this is absolutely necessary, I regularly hear frustrations over the lack of accessible scientific data and research available in the fashion space. We explore this tension as well. Telling stories is powerful and can influence change. Quotes & links from the conversation: “So, I don't think that there is a silver bullet here — there isn't the single answer in the playbook, but the intention is to open up this discussion and put it on the table and importantly say that marketers, communicators, anybody in that sort of job function, which basically means that they spend time communicating with consumers in some capacity, has a role that they can play here to help towards change.” -Rachel (16:58) The Sustainable Fashion Communication Playbook Report The Sustainable Fashion Communication Playbook Interactive FashMash, global community Rachel helped cofound  Rachel's LinkedIn Follow Rachel on Instagram >

At the UN Climate Change conference in Egypt last month, the U.S. delegation led by Climate Czar John Kerry committed this country to assume partial responsibility for the warming of our planet – and to pay what amount to reparations to “developing” nations portrayed as victims of intense weather and other consequences of rising temperatures. The absurdity – to say nothing of the outrageousness – of this initiative was powerfully illuminated in a webinar yesterday sponsored by our Committee on the Present Danger: China. One of its highlights was a stunning observation: Communist China's emissions of carbon dioxide – the gas climate alarmists insist is imperiling our planet and the human race – exceed those of the United States, the European Union and India combined. The new Congress must repudiate Team Biden's promise to pay the Chinese Communist Party climate reparations. Not a red cent.   This is Frank Gaffney.

On one of the most contentious issues at COP27 in Sharm El-Sheikh, EU climate chief Frans Timmermans hinted at room for compromise. “We want to be bridge builders. We are open for this facility, but under certain conditions, and we need to discuss this,” Timmermans told reporters on Wednesday (16 November). A group of 134 developing countries, known as the G77, and China, is calling for agreement in Sharm el-Sheikh this week to set up a loss and damage facility. Rich countries prefer a “mosaic” of funding arrangements. The EU argues a facility is just one option to consider – and the decision should be made at next year's summit. Existing and new funding instruments, ranging from debt relief to a windfall tax on oil and gas profits, should form part of the solution, Brussels says. Many of these sit outside the UN Climate Change process. Current vs historic responsibility In any case, Timmermans said the pool of contributors should be broader than the list of countries defined by UN Climate Change as “developed” in the 1990s. “I think everybody should be brought into the system on the basis of where they are today. China is one of the biggest economies on the planet with a lot of financial strength,” said Timmermans. “Why should they not be made co-responsible for funding loss and damage?” Last week, the prime minister of Antigua and Barbuda appeared to agree. “We all know that India and China… are major polluters and the polluters must pay,” Gaston Browne said. “I don't think that there's any free pass for any country.” The island leader later clarified that there had to be a “differentiated assessment” that took into account historic emissions. At a press conference last week, China's climate envoy Xie Zhenhua said Beijing made voluntary contributions through south-south cooperation and was under no obligation to do more. Developing countries' position hasn't budged. Under a detailed proposal published on Tuesday, the G77 calls for a committee to work out how the facility would work for approval next year. The EU's shift in position puts the spotlight on the US, which has so far rejected the proposal for a new fund. “That's just not happening,” climate envoy John Kerry said on Saturday, citing concerns about liability for compensation. In other interviews, he took a softer tone, but remained vague about where the landing ground might be. Need for speed One of the arguments against a facility is it would take too long to get money flowing. Developing countries have previously said the new fund could be mod

India has hit out at the developed nations for their hot air on addressing climate change. From calling for a phase down of all fossil fuels and not just coal, to pushing for a better definition and tracking of climate finance, India has vehemently placed the onus on the developed world to aid the developing nations in navigating the climate crisis. As India holds the developed world accountable, can it become a messiah for the rest of the world? Or can India be a global climate leader?  Host Mugdha Variyar speaks to Urmi Goswami, Assistant Editor at The Economic Times, who is tracking the developments at Sharm el Sheikh in Egypt, and Vaibhav Chaturvedi, fellow at Delhi-based think tank Council for Energy, Environment and Water (CEEW) on India's many interventions at COP27, as well as what the country needs to meet its own decarbonisation targets.

With COP 27 happening this week, we thought we should give a round up of what has happened.COP 27 is taking place at Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said in his opening speech "We are on the highway to climate hell, with our foot still on the accelerator"He also proposed Debt-for-losses swap as a way for developing countries to recover from climate disaster.Additionally Russia, Democratic Republic of Congo and Indonesia pull out of the Reforestation bill that was signed last year at COP 26.

The United Nations is an international organization founded in 1945. Currently made up of 193 Member States, the UN and its work are guided by the purposes and principles contained in its founding Charter.The UN has evolved over the years to keep pace with a rapidly changing world.But one thing has stayed the same: it remains the one place on Earth where all the world's nations can gather together, discuss common problems, and find shared solutions that benefit all of humanity.------The UNFCCC secretariat (UN Climate Change) is the United Nations entity tasked with supporting the global response to the threat of climate change. UNFCCC stands for United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. The Convention has near universal membership (197 Parties) and is the parent treaty of the 2015 Paris Agreement. The main aim of the Paris Agreement is to keep the global average temperature rise this century as close as possible to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. The UNFCCC is also the parent treaty of the 1997 Kyoto Protocol. The ultimate objective of all three agreements under the UNFCCC is to stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that will prevent dangerous human interference with the climate system, in a time frame which allows ecosystems to adapt naturally and enables sustainable development.#UnitedNations #climateaction #cop27

Or perhaps not.BrazilThe successful election in Brazil of former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (popularly called Lula) has raised hopes that the huge damage being done to the Amazon rain forest and the threat to the indigenous peoples of that region will now end.The Climate EmergencyThis weekend the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP 27 – the Conference of the Parties) will begin in Sharm El Sheikh, in Egypt. It will be the 27th UN Climate Change conference and last for 12 daysIt comes at a critical juncture in the effort to tackle climate change and follows the publication of three keynote reports by UN agencies warning that we are on the cusp of  climatic changes from which there is little prospect of recovery.

On November 6, leaders around the world will gather for the annual UN Climate Change conference, known this year as COP27. The aim: finding ways to slow the warming of the planet, before it's too late.  Take Egypt—it's getting hotter at twice the pace of some other nations, and also happens to be the host of this year's conference. If it continues to warm at its current rate, the country's crops will wither and the capital, Cairo, will become unlivable. What's happening in Egypt right now is a glimpse into the future for the rest of us if governments don't get serious about the climate. Bloomberg climate reporter Laura Millan Lombraña joins this episode from Madrid to walk us through what's at stake as COP27 is set to begin–and give us the good and bad news about where the Earth's climate is heading. And energy reporter Salma El Wardany joins from Cairo with perspective from the ground after talking with Egyptian farmers who fear for their futures.
