💥 #Brazil is one of the world's biggest oil expanders - so this is both a challenging and significant step.
💥 #Lula stated we "must face our contradictions" (of what the science demands and our fossil fuel production plans).

Our @350.org response: 350.org/press-releas...

The transition away from #fossilfuels is underway, irrespective of whether the #COP is allowed to talk about it. But the COP might help to make it more just and orderly if it was allowed to

What's positive is that since Glasgow the transitions needed to mitigate climate change have increasingly become the center of discussion. Belém was discussing the right question, even if it wasn't able to provide an answer

The adjective is well deserved, it's really a great piece of work.

To actually have material for such an annual consideration of progress it would obviously be great if all Parties’ NDCs included how they will contribute to tripling renewables, doubling efficiency, cutting methane, and removing fossil subsidies

What would also help would be to remove the qualifier “inefficient” from the call for removing #fossilsubsidies“, and include this as another item in the annual consideration of progress

Ideally, the annual consideration of progress would be coupled with constructive consideration of which barriers are impeding progress and how to overcome them, including but not limited to provision of sufficient means of implementation

In terms of what #Bélem can actually do on tripling #renewables, doubling #efficiency and cutting #methane, the current text option of annual consideration of progress could indeed help. Creating annual political moments of transparency and accountability is one of the key things the UNFCCC can do
