This could happen. It would be bad. Why? Because science tells us that to have a good chance of staving off really really bad climate impacts, the world needs to halve emissions by 2030. This is absolutely counter to all the net zero talk from capitals and company board rooms twitter.com/fbirol/status/…
Global CO2 emissions are set to jump by 1.5 gigatonnes in 2021 – led by a rebound in coal demand mainly from the power sector.

It would be the 2nd largest rise in emissions ever. This economic recovery is anything but sustainable for our climate.

#US amb #UN at J St: As the president likes to say, we can’t be afraid to tell the truth to our closest friends. That means speaking out against provocative, unilateral actions that increase tensions & take us further from the path of peace #Palestine usun.usmission.gov/remarks-by-amb…
Terrific essay, Max. Having worked in #Afghanistsn, I share your concerns while recognizing the impulse to throw ones hands up. A middle ground can protect allies while containing threats - al Qaeda,, human rights abuse, regional stability — within & beyond the country. twitter.com/MaxBoot/status…
It is incongruous for Biden to focus on reviving U.S. alliances while abandoning our allies in Afghanistan.https://t.co/6RvRhwvYNX

I want to give credit to the Indigenous women who are meeting this moment w/grassroots efforts, defending our Earth against human causes of climate change around the world. Women & yg ppl lead efforts in all areas of justice. We must protect these defenders.
