Dear members and supporters, GGJ is on the ground with our It Takes Roots (ITR) delegation in Bonn, Germany this week for the intersessional UNFCCC meeting in the lead up to the next Conference of Parties (COP) climate change assembly. In Bonn, country negotiators will advance priorities from COP27 in November
2022 and set an agenda for COP28 that will be held in the United Arab Emirates this December. Key topics include the loss and damage fund, carbon markets, Just Transition, and progress toward emissions reduction goals set in the Paris Agreement. We are excited to share our analysis and demands of these discussions. Join us, the Black Hive at Movement for Black Lives, the Indigenous Environmental Network, and the Just Transition Alliance for the latest updates from Bonn!
