To be crystal clear: I am not “against” Israel or Palestine. Needless to say I’m against any form of violence or oppression from anyone or any part. And again - it is devastating to follow the developments in Israel and Palestine.

Amazing work by @Fridays4future activists showing @StanChart how it’s done. It’s time for Standard Chartered to actually be #HereForGood and end their investments into the coal industry. #CleanUpStandardChartered #RaiseYourStandards twitter.com/Fridays4future…

Could this be true? standardchartered.uk.com/en/media/press…
Are @StanChart really saying they will end all financing to any coal-fired power plant across the globe by 2021? Let’s watch their press conference to remind them to #RaiseYourStandards #CleanUpStandardChartered

”Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good.”
Well, I don’t know about you but I don’t consider ”climate targets” putting us on track for 2,4°C and current policies indicating we’re headed for 2,9°C (excluding most tipping points, feedback-loops etc) to be ”good”.

And please note, these figures are global and don't include the aspect of equity. High income nations have promised to lead the way and must do more to compensate for historic emissions. #ClimateJustice

The planetary boundaries have been defined. Decades of negotiations, science and diplomacy led to the ParisAgreement. The compromises have been made.

As CO2 emissions stay in the atmosphere up to 1000years we of course need to look at historic emissions and in context to population and emissions per capita. And developed nation must lead so others can raise their living standards. As I say all the time.

"Another variant is when we create and foster a sick economy which allows a very rich few to own more than the rest of humanity and models of production and consumption destroy the planet, our common home.
These things are interconnected."

Many new emission reduction announcements have been presented lately. Here is a sobering reminder to put things in context...

Yes, China is still categorized as a developing nation by WTO, they manufacture a lot of our products and so on.
But that's of course no excuse for ruining future and present living conditions. We can't solve the climate crisis unless China drastically changes course.

"Över 200.000 ton träpellets ska brännas varje år i Vattenfalls planerade kraftverk i nederländska Diemen. Satsningen är en del i bolagets omställning till fossilfritt – men riskerar i stället att leda till ökade utsläpp av koldioxid."

To surrender the aspect of equity based on historic emissions and climate justice for low- and middle income countries in order to create goals and targets that high income nations consider to be “politically possible” is not just immoral - it violates the Paris agreement. 2/n
595
We can’t call for climate justice while advocating for policies and face-out-dates based on targets that exclude aspect of equity and historic emissions. The first step towards climate justice must be to include ALL (especially) high income nations emissions in the targets. 1/n

Global average per capita CO2 emissions for

- Bottom 50% income earner: 0.69 tonnes
