Uganda\u2019s Vanessa Nakate, a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, said activists were tired of being disappointed at the annual United Nations conferences to battle climate change.<\/p>\n<p>She was speaking after the latest COP28 draft agreement dropped any mention of winding down fossil fuels, speaking only of a potential reduction in consumption and production. \u201cIt can be tiring to keep coming to these places and to be constantly disappointed by the decisions that are made,\u201d the 27-year-old told a press conference. \u201cFor this COP to be truly a success, it has to address fossil fuels. If leaders fail to address the root cause of the climate crisis after 28 years of climate conferences, then they aren\u2019t only failing us, but they\u2019re making us lose trust in the entire COP process.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nakate\u2019s comments are reminiscent of 20-year-old Swedish activist Greta Thunberg, who famously dismissed world leaders\u2019 promises on climate change as just \u201cblah, blah, blah\u201d. Thunberg, who in January said it was \u201cridiculous\u201d that the United Arab Emirates\u2019 state oil company chief was the COP28 president, last attended a COP summit in 2021. Some activists were in tears over the latest text. Joseph Sikulu of Pacific Island Warriors took several seconds to compose himself before addressing the press conference with tears rolling down his cheeks.<\/p>\n<p>Nakate said: \u201cWhat is happening here is unacceptable. What is happening is unjust. What is happening is unfair.\u201d<br \/>\n\u201cThis text that we saw yesterday is sinking the lifeboat for humanity,\u201d she added, calling it a \u201cdeath sentence for communities\u201d. \u201cWe know that in this case, there are over 2,400 fossil fuel lobbyists that have a lot of control and power over this process,\u201d said the Ugandan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd we must call out that sabotage, we must call out the power. We must hold the fossil fuel companies accountable for the climate crisis. Some people might say that if you are discussing how to cure malaria, you don\u2019t invite the mosquitoes,\u201d Nakate added.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.digitaljournal.com\/world\/campaigners-losing-trust-in-cop-says-leading-activist\/article\">DJ<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/csr-news-en\/campaigners-losing-trust-in-cop-says-leading-activist\/\">Campaigners \u2018losing trust in COP\u2019, says leading activist<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[12620,12621,555,11370,3120],"class_list":["post-119420","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-campaigner","tag-cop","tag-csr-news-en","tag-losing","tag-trust"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119420","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=119420"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119420\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=119420"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=119420"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=119420"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
