John,

Together with Grassroots Global Justice, Indigenous Environmental Network,
and many other members, allies and partners, we continue to stage strategic
interventions against false solutions such as Carbon Markets and the
neoliberal construct Net Zero emissions [8], which equates carbon emission
offsets and technology investments with real emissions reductions at
source. See the full list of members organizing non-stop at COP26 here [9]!
We are calling for local, community controlled solutions to the climate
crisis that leave no one behind and stops the harmful practice of sacrifice
zones.
It Takes Roots delegates have participated in panels and organized rallies
and protests both inside COP26 and outside with social movements from
around the world. We called attention to the connection between militarism
and climate change, and joined our international partners in denouncing the
most exclusionary COP ever.
We continue to push back hard against climate profiteers and fossil fuel
lobbyists, who wield an extraordinary amount of influence in these
international negotiating spaces. This year, the largest delegation to COP
is fossil fuel lobbyists. We can’t let that stand.
In addition to fighting the bad, we are building the new through stronger
relationships and living our power every day on the streets of Glasgow. The
time we have spent together, painting [10] banners, marching for climate
justice, learning from each other, and building community has been
invaluable. Check out photos from our first few days together here [11] and
stay tuned for more soon.
With love from Glasgow,
