Part of my speech at @ClimateNCL’s rally to coincide with #COP29 - the UN Climate Change Conference.
We can build a greener society if we also build a fairer society.

📣 BREAKING: More than 1,770 fossil fuel lobbyists attend #COP29 in Baku, Azerbaijan.
New analysis from #KickBigPollutersOut finds that there are more Big Polluter representatives at COP29 than there are delegates from the ten most climate-vulnerable nations.
This is outrageous, and Big Polluter interference will cost millions of people their homes, livelihoods, and lives. We need to #WeedOutTheSnakes NOW!
🌡️ Global temperatures and greenhouse gas emissions are at all-time highs.
So why are 1770+ of fossil fuel lobbyists being given access to #COP29?
Big Polluters shouldn't get to dictate the terms of climate action after setting the planet on fire. We need:
➡️People In
⚠️#PollutersOut
✅An Accountability Framework to protect the talks from industry interference
We must #WeedOutTheSnakes and #KickBigPollutersOut NOW!

⚠️Sharks abandoning coral reefs! 🦈
As ocean temperatures rise, these cold-blooded animals will need to move to cooler waters, tipping reef ecosystems off balance. 🪸
We must act urgently to stop burning fossil fuels or we risk losing coral reefs. 🔥

DRAX power station in Yorkshire is the single largest source of carbon emissions in the UK– yet it's received £7BN in renewable energy subsidies from the taxpayer since 2012 .
With a new Govt , it's time to put an end to this gravy train– email your MP at lovera.ge/stopburningtrees
