Rights-based approach is the right way to achieve the world we dream of. The current situation is not world that we want. Why do we still have marginalized groups? Young people will rewrite history. - Sudanese youth climate activist, @NisreenElsaim #ClimateAction #ClimateCrisis https://t.co/NNCEYsYwGp

Hi disasters are not “natural” Time for my semiannual repost of @KendraWrites article on why there’s no such thing as “natural” disasters. https://t.co/7ZkaLMQ9js

Mangroves don’t just provide unparalleled natural climate mitigation and adaptation benefits, they often have cultural and spiritual significance for local and indigenous communities #ClimateCrisis https://t.co/b0PSNoVAII

It's not yet enough. We've been seeing the most vulnerable lead the way. High emitters need to commit to more drastic and immediate emissions reductions, climate finance and debt relief. @CarbonBrief @Bec_Carman @kalyankeo https://t.co/9FodX8rC6t

Fiji is currently being hit by a dangerous Category 5 cyclone. Pandemic means post-disaster aid can be difficult. They need support and attention. Climate crisis means this is the new normal for islands. #CycloneYasa #Yasa #ClimateCrisis https://t.co/rYkO6DRpu2

Looking back at 2020, despite pandemic, many of the most vulnerable countries have been leading on addressing climate crisis. Learn more in the new Climate Promise 20 Insights on NDCs in 2020 report. @UNDPClimate @cassie_flynn @kalyankeo @EriYamasumi https://t.co/MLetL1zEBh

The climate crisis is a human rights issue - it is both the product of the elimination of human rights and threatens human rights now and into the future. Thank you to the many leaders who have fought for this important linkage! #HumanRights @Thilmeeza

.@p_amayoO raised that young ppl need support to understand technical jargon and NDCs (national climate strategies/goals), which breaks down barriers to participation. Important to engage from grassroots up. Youth consultations must happen more regularly w govt, not just one time
