Noting a packed agenda of old & new #BaselConvention issues, BRS Conventions Exec Sec @rolphpayet.bsky.social tells #OEWG15 delegates their job is to review work since 2025, test if proposed outputs are sufficiently practical & robust, & ID what still needs refining before #COP18.

Since COP26, a massive kind of carbon offset industry trade-show type thing has emerged and that plus a huge increase in state actor attendees means 100k people are turning up in Dubai.

This is fundamentally unacceptable, and needs to be stopped ASAP

Today marks 12 years since super typhoon Yolanda / Haiyan ravaged the central Philippines

Looking back: One year after COP18 and the typhoon Bopha my tweets about Yolanda/Haiyan hit. While waiting for the COP19 to start on Monday @Yebsano wrote “Our strength lies in your strength.#ClimateActionNow”

This marks the third consecutive year that a country heavily dependent on fossil fuel production has hosted the event. This trend follows the previous two conferences, COP28 in the United Arab Emirates and COP27 in Egypt. Besides, Qatar previously hosted COP18 in Doha.

#BaselConvention #OEWG15 opens today, tasked w/ reviewing implementation of COP decisions & paving the way for #COP18 consideration of issues, incl. improving the #PIC procedure, many technical guidelines, & a possible adjustment in the 2019 #plastics amendment. @brsconventions.bsky.social

Renforcement des partenariats scientifiques et coopération internationale indispensables pour obtenir des résultats à la hauteur à la COP18 en Égypte.

#OEWG15 delegates consider draft guidance to aid officials rationally apply #BaselConvention #ewaste amendments, esp. distinguishing between ewaste subject to #PIC & associated waste that may not be. They decided on more detailed talks to further develop the guidance for possible adoption at #COP18.
June 24, 2026 at 1:10 PM
While many #OEWG15 delegates want to discuss #Norway's #plasticwaste proposal now in detail, but small group opposes it, arguing focus more on implementing 2019 amendment rather than more changes, & it'd prejudice #plasticstreaty talks. Solution: allow comments until 30 Sept & discuss it @ #COP18.

STATEMENT: COP17 Advances Finance but Falls Short on Global Drought Action
ULAANBAATAR (August 29, 2026) — The UN Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) COP17 in Ulaanbaatar concluded with the announcement of a $1.3 billion finance portfolio for land restoration and drought resilience, including $644.5 million identified as new finance. Countries did not reach agreement on a global drought framework, with negotiations set to continue at COP18. Held during the International Year of Rangelands and Pastoralists, COP17 also placed a major focus on rangelands and pastoralist communities. Following is a statement from Susan Chomba, Director of Vital Landscapes, WRI Africa: “COP17 opened as disaster after disaster unfolded around the world. Drought is drying up water supplies, fueling wildfires and leaving families with failed harvests and fewer ways to make ends meet. The test in Ulaanbaatar was whether countries could get ahead of these crises, rather than keep scrambling to respond after the damage is done. “Drought was one of the defining issues, but countries still stopped short of a stronger global framework to address it. Drought may hit locally, but its impacts on food, water and economies can quickly cross borders. Stronger preparedness and cooperation will be essential – and increasingly urgent. “Pastoralists finally received overdue recognition as essential stewards of the...
