'While your energy security continues to be our priority, we will not be able to do much if there is any distortion in the Strait of Hormuz,” Al Jaber said.

The world needs "trillions" of dollars to spur on the green transition and tackle global warming, the head of last year's COP28 climate talks has said, warning that political momentum can evaporate without clear action. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/environment/2024/02/22/climate-change/world-trillions-climate-action-cop28/ #environment #climatechange #uae #cop28 #climatechange #iea #aljaber
Political momentum on climate could evaporate, warns COP28 president

COP28 president Sultan al-Jaber hailed progress made at U.N. negotiations last year in Dubai but the deal lacked important details, including on funding.

Le Sultan #AlJaber a été un excellent président de la #COP28 pour le #climat, applaudi par les pays du monde entier !

Il se dit en coulisse que #Poutine et #Netanyahou sont favoris pour le prochain prix #Nobel de la #paix...

Le président de la #COP28, Ahmed Al-Jaber, ministre de l’Industrie émirati et PDG de la compagnie nationale Abu Dhabi National Oil Company a eu une immense surprise.
Celle d'entendre le représentant des Émirats Arabes Unis à l' #OPEP, Ayed El-Qahtani, refuser catégoriquement que soit ne serait-ce que mentionné dans le texte final, la sortie des énergies fossiles.

Comment aurait-il pu prévoir ce coup de théâtre, ce cher président #AlJaber ?
Ce n'est pas comme si il avait des relations quotidiennes avec le représentant de son pays à l'OPEP, en tant que Pdt de Abu Dhabi Oil ET de ministre de l'industrie.

Faut pas voir le mal partout, il est surement aussi embêté et surpris que nous par ce rebondissement.
Vidée de sa raison d'être, la sortie des énergies fossiles, de quelle souris va bien pouvoir accoucher maintenant cette montagne d'auto-congratulations et de promesses dans le vide, et que s'apelorio COP28 ?

COP28 🧵 /43

This failure isn't COP28 President #AlJaber's. It's to be expected. He no doubt sees the exclusion of #FossilFuel #Phaseout language as a great success. The real failure is Al Jaber champion & fellow billionaire #JohnKerry's (who probably sees it as a success too).

Selten hat jemand so deutlich gesagt, wer verantwortlich ist. «I am the man in charge.»
Über Land haben wir die 1,5° bereits gerissen, den «vorindustriell» ist eben nicht 1950–80. Dubai plant massiv verstärkte Ölförderung. Profitieren, solange man kann – bezahlen werden die anderen.
Und in Europa meinen die meisten Politikis auch, man habe noch viel Zeit.
Haben wir nicht.
Wer fliegt noch in die Ferien? An den nächsten Kongress?
Shame on you!

#COP28 🧵 /26

COP28 is officially a shambles and never forget: every #AlJaber story is a #JohnKerry story & an outright betrayal of every climate activist on the planet. Go home, Kerry. Never again darken a COP conference. We deserve WAY better than you B.S. billionaires and your dirty deals.
