John -

Last week marked a major moment in the climate world. As the UN General
Assembly gathered during New York Climate Week, activists (including
350.org staff and supporters like you) turned out to demand they commit to
ambitious goals to phase out fossil fuels and provide equitable support to
communities on the frontlines of the climate crisis. 

Now comes the next step — and we need to keep the pressure up before the
biggest negotiations get underway this fall.

In just one week, delegates from 40 countries around the world will gather
in Baku, Azerbaijan, ahead of the UN’s COP29 climate talks. This meeting
will set the tone for COP29 — and delegates need to hear from you.

[ [link removed] ]John, will you send a letter to key delegates, asking them
to push for climate justice at Baku and beyond? When enough people raise
their voices, leaders are compelled to listen and act.

These world leaders will be discussing a crucial topic: climate finance.
“Climate finance” refers to securing money from rich countries to help
poor countries transition away from fossil fuels.

But some rich countries — including the U.S. — are trying to get away with
paying less than what’s needed. So we need delegates from supportive
regions to champion climate finance and bring the others along.  

Representatives from the UK, Germany and EU are already receptive to
strong climate finance and are more responsive to public pressure. They
could be pivotal in driving a fair and open conversation about climate
finance and pushing other leaders, including in the U.S., to commit to
stronger targets.

Climate finance is about more than just getting money from one government
to another. It’s about the people and communities that can thrive if
richer governments stop funding fossil fuels and pay for a fair transition
to renewable energy.

push key global leaders in the right direction?

Those on the frontlines have done the least to cause the climate crisis,
but are left to deal with the worst impacts while rich countries profit.
It’s time for rich countries, including the U.S., to stop stalling and pay
what we owe.

If we get this right, we can help make incredible projects happen that
transform communities and safeguard all our futures.

Onward,
Team 350
