A man standing in front of banners calling for a just transition in Bonn, Germany.
Climate Action Network welcomes the meaningful mention of the need for a Just Transition in the UN Secretary-General's speech today.
COP30 can and must deliver on a Just Transition with a path grounded in human rights, justice and equity. ✊

It is time for all governments to submit their revised national #climate plans ( #NDC3.0 )
Parliamentarians have an important role to play in these processes and I am happy they engage

For the 4th year in a row, Denmark is organising the Copenhagen Climate Ministerial, as preparation for the upcoming COP.
This year it’s even more relevant than earlier years, as Denmark will be having the EU presidency during COP30.
Great to learn more about the preparations.

Dan Jørgensen: A shipping levy is an innovative source of climate finance
Denmark’s minister for climate policy explains why we need new ways to boost financing and phase out fossil fuels
A shipping levy should be an innovative source of climate finance! This has been pushed by Denmark before. I hope it still is something Denmark, and EU, want to push for in the ongoing negotiations in the International Maritime Organisation

Hopes fade for climate cash from carbon price on shipping
Government negotiators look set to agree to keep the money raised by taxing shipping emisions within the maritime sector
Sad news from the @imohq.bsky.social negotiations, but we should remember that nothing is decided yet. I am still crossing fingers for a levy which can mobilise #climatefinance and help the shipping sector to become green

EU exploring weaker 2040 climate goal
The European Commission wants to keep a 90 percent emissions-cutting target but to change how countries calculate their progress.
Media reports suggest @wopkehoekstra.ec.europa.eu may allow international offsets in the EU’s 2040 climate targets.
This would be a major & dangerous u-turn from current EU climate policy.

EU appears to back down on carbon levy on international shipping
Bloc set to accept compromise that would allow companies to trade carbon credits, in blow to climate finance
Worrying news about the ongoing talks about the future of shipping emissions, and the possibilities to mobilise climate finance. We need an ambitious agreement, and it should include a levy!

#PetersbergDialogue: EU ministers must back Brazilian 🇧🇷 multilateral #COP30 leadership, listen to voices from lower-middle income & least developed countries and increase public climate finance 💰
📣 To help bring the needed Belem momentum, the EU must also deliver a bold NDC well before September!

Climate finance needs shipping industry to launch first global tax
A shipping tax is imperative for a sustainable trade system that can also generate climate finance for vulnerable countries
I am crossing fingers, hoping for an ambitious outcome from the upcoming #IMO summit, where a global levy, which could generate climate finance, is on the table.
