This may just be the most important climate conference you've never heard
of, John:
From June 16 to 26, governments will come together at the United Nations'
2025 Bonn Climate Change Conference to decide what will be discussed at
the historic COP30 conference later this year.
But there won't just be government officials in attendance: Big Oil
lobbyists will be in Bonn to try to push their climate-wrecking agenda and
to ensure that the phasing out of fossil fuels does not make it onto the
COP30 negotiations' agenda.
That's why it's critical that we send climate activists to the Bonn
conference to make sure the climate movement, and the interests of the
people, are represented in the COP30 agenda.
I will explain exactly what our plan is for the Bonn conference in just a
moment, but first:

The 2025 Bonn Climate Change Conference is much more than just a
pre-meeting to COP30. It's also a space where lobbyists, activists and
Indigenous leaders convene to try and influence global climate
negotiations.
Fossil fuel lobbyists will be whispering in government delegations' ears
and trying to dissuade them from putting bold climate commitments on the
agenda for COP30 in November.
And the upcoming COP30 in Brazil this year is an incredible opportunity to
spotlight people power and climate activists around the world — and to win
real climate action. Because unlike recent COPs hosted by petrostates and
authoritarian regimes, this summit will take place in one of the world's
largest democracies, with a powerful history of grassroots movements, with
a government that has indicated it's ready to lead on climate action. We
can't let Big Oil derail this moment.
So what are we going to do about it?
I am going to Bonn, and I'm bringing a team of climate activists with me.
Our plan is twofold: to disrupt the fossil fuel industry's attempts to
sabotage the agenda in favor of continued climate chaos, and to fight for
Indigenous Peoples and traditional communities to have power and an equal
voice in climate negotiations.
We will need to be in as many conversations as possible, and we need to be
the loudest voice inside and outside the room, so that we can push for a
COP30 agenda that will address our key demands — a swift transition from
fossil fuels to renewable energy, paid for by rich countries, and led by
Indigenous Peoples and traditional communities around the world.
But we need your support,
John.
Costs in Bonn, Germany, during the conference are high, and unlike Big Oil
lobbyists with their bottomless pockets of money, we will need your
support to maximize our impact. We're relying on you to afford travel to
Bonn and build impactful actions with partners, so we can organize around
the clock for a bold climate agenda.
And with just one week left, I have to ask: can you help us defeat Big Oil
lobbyists in Bonn?
[ [link removed] ]If
you're able, please make a donation today so we can make the most of the
Bonn climate conference, push for bold climate action at COP30, and grow
our climate movement to hold governments accountable to their promises.
This is our chance to shape the future of international climate politics.
Thank you for your support in this crucial moment.
Onward,
