Commenting from Baku on the outcome of COP29, Friends of the Earth Ireland climate policy campaigner Seán McLoughlin said:
“Baku is a big F U to climate justice, to the poorest communities who are on the frontlines of climate breakdown.
“COP29 has failed those who have done least to cause climate change and who are most vulnerable to climate breakdown because the process is still in thrall to fossil fuel bullies and rich countries more committed to shirking their historical responsibility than safeguarding our common future.
“Now it’s back to citizens to demand our governments do the right thing. We must keep demanding the trillions, not billions owed in climate debt and a comprehensive, swift and equitable fossil fuel phase-out. The struggle for climate justice is not over.”
