Act now to ensure that our global leaders represent those who are affected by the climate crisis – and not those who caused it.
The people most impacted by the climate crisis are being left out of the room where decisions about the future of the planet are made.
Last year, at COP27, we revealed that 636 fossil fuel lobbyists were at the UN climate summit. There were twice as many lobbyists than there were delegates from indigenous people - the UAE was the delegation with the largest number of fossil fuel delegates, and it's now set to host the next UN climate talks in November.
This shouldn't be happening again.
It's time for our global leaders to pay attention to the people who are most affected by the climate crisis - and shut the door on polluters.
From Indigenous groups in Brazil, to activists in Uganda, to land defenders in India, all around the world are people on the front line of the climate crisis, standing up for our planet and our future - too often, risking their lives in the process.
We still have a chance to take action, but world leaders must listen to the people, not polluters.
Add your voice and pledge to:
- Demand that world leaders and governments put the interests of people ahead of the ever- increasing profits of big polluters
- Amplify the voices and demands of land and environmental defenders
- Call on COP28 leaders to shut the door to fossil fuel lobbyists
