Disgusted by the behaviour of my government here at COP, in conjunction with their policies on migration at home. There’s no point of a Labour government; prove us wrong.
Kill the greed, not the solutions: DCJ believes that this is a make-or-break year for just transition in the UNFCCC. Either the JTWP fulfills its promise of delivering concrete outcomes or it becomes another failed workstream.

Hurricane Melissa strengthens to category 5 and heads for Jamaica amid warning ‘many communites will not survive flooding’ – live

“Many of these communities will not survive the flooding,” said Desmond McKenzie, the minister of local government. “Kingston is extremely low. No community in Kingston is immune.” Continue reading...
