Special guest Julie Johnston joins Dr. Peter Carter, Paul Beckwith and Regina Valdez to discuss the upcoming Conference Of the Parties, COP28 to be held in Dubai, UAE beginning on November 30th. • This video was recorded on November 14th, 2023, and published on November 19th, 2023, and represents the opinions of the discussion participants. • The importance of hosting the COPs in different regions to facilitate a broader attendance was mentioned along with the significance of including the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region due to predictions of extreme climate changes rendering parts of it uninhabitable. The forum touched upon the history of COPs, highlighting the first conference in Berlin in 1995 and the Kyoto Protocol established in the third COP in Kyoto. • Julie Johnston shared a heartfelt message urging women attending COP to represent mothers, grandmothers, and all of humanity in climate discussions. She added a perspective on ecological responsibility, calling for compassion and courageous advocacy at COP28. • The subsequent discussion involved participants expressing their views on COP negotiations, highlighting the deceptive nature of some agreements, the urgent need to address fossil fuel subsidies, and the potential consequences of climate change on future generations. • The forum participants also discussed the disconnect between government negotiators and the broader public and the critical role of activists in holding leaders to account. The discussion underscored the urgency of addressing climate change and the importance of COP28 in shaping global climate policies. • Links: • Climate Impacts: Mediterranean and North Africa (CEF Video) • • Climate Impacts: Mediterranean and No... • Kyoto Protocol • https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyoto_P... • An underwhelming G20 skates over the big issues of poverty, inequality and climate' • https://www.oxfam.org/en/press-releas... • What is the UAE Cop28 plan of climate action? • https://www.theguardian.com/environme... • What is COP28 and why is it important? • https://www.chathamhouse.org/2023/09/... • Nationally Determined Contributions Under the Paris Agreement: Synthesis report by the secretariat • https://reliefweb.int/report/world/na... • Global Warming in the Pipeline (CEF Video) • • Global Warming in the Pipeline • International Maritime Organization • https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interna... • Does rising methane signal a ‘great transition’ in climate? by Euan Nisbet • https://earthsky.org/earth/rising-met... • Pakistan's Pluvial Plight (CEF Video) • • Pakistan's Pluvial Plight • Eco Grief (CEF Video) • • Eco Grief • CEF to attend COP28 (CEF News) • https://climateemergencyforum.org/_ne... • Special Guest: • Julie Johnston • Sustainability Education Coach Consultant with GreenHeart Education; Climate Reality Leader • . • Regular Panelists: • Dr. Peter Carter - MD, Expert IPCC Reviewer and the director of the Climate Emergency Institute • Paul Beckwith - Climate Systems Scientist.
