As @carbonbrief.org is reporting re climate finance, COP31 is stalled and credibility of finance pledges is fatiguing at best at these negotiations.

Worth noting that the most deafening silence is not coming from the US ($ is crucial but US was always weird at these meetings) but European cuts.

Tbc Europe remains the only “big” world player supplying climate finance (China so far is really only eyeing technology trade and clean product provision)

Sadly Europeans have started the negotiations saying they won’t add one cent to past pledges, so no progress is likely there, just sourness

COP31, like the 12 COPs before it, is going to be a billion dollar waste of time. A billion dollars of careerism and gaslighting.

Gaia is coming for us and all we can do is negotiate over which lies are prettier.

I ask, can we transform a vast, complex, planet-stressing system in this way?

#COP31 is underway in Antalya, Türkiye, and one group is not only there to talk the talk.🌍

While world leaders fly to participate in talks on climate solutions, #copbikeride brought together a dedicated and determined group to bike & sail all the way from Belém, Brazil, to COP31! 💪

COP1 - 1995
COP2 -1996
Etc.
COP31 - 2026

As you can clearly see these conferences have had ZERO impact on the planet’s heating trajectory.

It’s all been blah blah blah.

Payback for this colossal failure to hit emissions brakes is arriving at speed as climate chaos spreads.
An update to a classic, ready for COP31.
