We knew what we had to do a long time ago.
Here's Tooker Gomberg sharing a message to delegates to the UNFCCC COP6, The Hague 2000.

That symbolic dike is to hold back the rising tides.

Fun Fact: before Bill Nye was Tooker Gomberg. He wanted to light a globe on fire at COP6 in The Hague but the one I brought him was plastic, so no, that's just awful. Instead we lit up our Canadian passports to make the point. 26 years ago we knew. youtu.be/rpzRbHubcf0?...

Talking with Mr. Edy Dariquebe (Federación Nativa del Río Madre de Dios y Afluentes) and Ms. Elsa Mamani (Asociación de Mujeres Sumaq Tikaqrik), two indigenous leaders who took part in the #GEF #CI #IUCN Inclusive Conservation Initiative (ICI) has made me hopeful again.
Lighting the Path with Indigenous Knowledge
2025 marks a defining year for Indigenous leadership in global environmental policy. Hear from Indigenous leaders of the Inclusive Conservation Initiative (ICI) on how Indigenous Knowledge is lighting the policy path -- from Abu Dhabi, to COP6 for the Minamata Convention, and to UNFCCC COP30 in Belé

@billmckibben.bsky.social look what I found. You posting Q to 🇨🇦 delegation at COP6 re: carbon sinks efficacy in 50yrs.

My apologies, I did not know who you were back then. I was behind the camera, and Tooker, who interviewed you at COP3 is just off cam.

I often think about the @unccd.bsky.social COP6 in Havana in 2003. The leaders who joined Fidel Castro on the stage at one point included Robert Mugabe and Hugo Chávez. It was definitely one of the wildest experiences of my life enb.iisd.org/desert/cop6/...

🏵️Experts at a #COP6 side-event stressed that ending mercury in cosmetics requires more than regulation — it requires redefining beauty, identity and human rights.

Können wir bitte aufhören mit der COP Verarschung?

Nutzlose Konferenzen, deren gesamtes Konzept der Einstimmigkeit das ganze Vorhaben zum Scheitern verurteilt, bitte hört auf daran teilzunehmen.

Je comprends que les Européens n'aient pas voulu, dans le contexte actuel de fragilisation du multilatéralisme, prendre le risque d'un échec. Mais le prix à payer est très lourd. Je pense qu'ils auraient dû claquer la porte, comme à la COP6 de La Haye en 2000.
