@chris It would be a great #PublicService for meetings with #FossilFuel & other #ecocide #CorporateLobbyists with ANY of our public elected #PublicServants to be open to #PublicTransparency #PublicAccountability #PublicScrutiny.
Too many #politicians forget that they are elected public servants. That means, their job is to serve us, the public, not corporate lobbyists. If they're not guilty of selling out the public for their own corporate lobbyists & political benefits - they'd not be so damn scared of full public transparency.

Live on an unlivable planet?
In the face of the deepening climate crisis, the UN Committee specified obligations under the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.
“Children worldwide have been leading the fight against climate change; calling on their governments and corporations to take action to protect the planet and their future."
“This new General Comment marks a vital step forward in the recognition that every child on Earth has the right to live in a clean, healthy and sustainable environment. Governments must now take urgent action to address the global environmental crisis in order to breathe life into these inspiring words,” says David Boyd, UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights and the Environment."
"General Comment No. 26 specifies that States are responsible not only for protecting children’s rights from immediate harm, but also for foreseeable violations of their rights in the future due to States’ acts — or failure to act — today.
Furthermore, it underlines that States can be held accountable not only for environmental harm occurring within their borders, but also for the harmful impacts of environmental damage and climate change beyond their borders. Particular attention is to be paid to disproportionate harm faced by children in disadvantaged situations."
"The 196 States that have ratified the Convention on the Rights of the Child are urged to take immediate action including organizing the phase out of coal, oil and natural gas and shifting to renewable energy sources, improving air quality and ensuring access to clean water, transforming industrial agriculture and fisheries to produce healthy and sustainable food, and protecting biodiversity."
