The ambition of Target 3 will not be realized without full respect for the rights of IPLCs. T3 needs to explicitly include recognition of “Indigenous peoples' territories & customary lands & waters" in the text as an alternative option to protected areas & OECMs. @CBD_COP15

How on Earth can there be no mention of #HumanRights in the COP26 work programme on public participation in climate action? The climate crisis is a human rights crisis, so human rights must be at the heart of all climate action--mitigation, adaptation, loss & damage!
first #COP26 outcomes being finalised
🛑🤐Last night, Parties refused to stress that work programme on public participation shld be informed by human rights.
😡This should have been a no brainer!
Parties must get their priorities right for next days and speak up for #HumanRights

A little bit of joyful emotion at the very staid Human Rights Council, as the UN for the first time recognizes the right to a clean, healthy and sustainable environment! (Mask was only off for a moment!)

Great news! Greenland has banned all new oil exploration due to the #ClimateEmergency and environmental concerns.
