It Takes Roots gave an update live from the Bonn Intersessional (SB 60). Recording below.
Date: Thursday, June 6
Time: 8am PT / 11am ET / 5pm CEST
Halfway between UN climate change conferences, Bonn presents a crucial intervention point for civil society to influence the climate talks. Our expert EJ panelists will report back on global progress and setbacks on preventing the climate crisis and how UN measures relate to EJ communities at home. Tune in for our analysis of developments on Article 6 of the Paris Agreement, human rights, agriculture, just transition, and more. We’ll cover the most important outcomes of the first week of SB60 and what’s needed for our movements to prepare for COP29 and COP30.
Panelists:
Alberto Saldamando, IEN Counsel on Human Rights and Climate Change.
Adrien Salazar, GGJ Policy Director
Claire Charlo, IEN Indigenous Feminisms Organizer
José Bravo, JTA Executive Director
Our dear comrade Pam Miller of Alaska Community Action on Toxics commented during the webinar:
It is frustrating to hear that this COP (Climate Conference) Intersessional in Bonn, Germany continues to rely on policies and systems that have gotten us into this horrific climate situation in the first place. The continuation of putting greed over living in balance with others is criminal!
