De COP en COP ... ces grandes messes internationales, me font de plus en plus un effet soporifique. “ disait Pierre Rabhi

Après cela, certaines élites s’étonnent que le Mouvement Climat est “poussé dans le dos par des radicaux” . L’impatience croît.  Et... l’éco-anxiété gagne du terrain. Les moyens d’actions traditionnels que sont les manifestations du dimanche ont montré leur limite à peser sur le monde politique. Les militants du Mouvement Climat sont désespérés face à des décennies d’immobilisme et non-décisions politiques. Désobéissance ou voie politique classique ? Choisis ton camp... “Le monde politique reste toujours peu perméable à l'idée d'un changement en profondeur du système actuel.”  Michel De Meulenaere  dans Le Soir du 3/9/2018

“Si rien ne change, nos enfants, nos petits-enfants ne nous le pardonneront pas.“ écrit Francis Van de Woestyne ( 15-11-2017). Et créera, inévitablement, un fossé plus grand encore entre les citoyens et le politique.

COP27 - A bit like Groundhog Day

COP27 – A bit like Groundhog Day

Do you remember the movie Groundhog Day released in 1993, where a weatherman is sent to cover a story about a weather forecasting “rat” (as he calls it) and finds himself in a time loop until he gets it right? Somehow the annual COP-shindigs remind me of exactly this situation: At each conference lots of promises, financial and other commitments and of course the obligatory back slapping but with…

climate startups and governments need to work together to supercharge nature-based solutions

A serial entrepreneur in his native Chile, Muñoz rose to prominence as the cofounder and CEO of TriCiclos, an award-winning waste and circular economy company. In 2019, he was named a UN Climate Change High-Level Champion for COP25; from that position, he has led a series of UN initiatives, including the Race To Zero and Race To Resilience campaigns. And Muñoz knows all about ethical business practices: He helped to found Sistema B (Latin America’s version of B Corp certification); an environmental consultancy; and Polkura Winery, a sustainability-focused vineyard. Throughout, Muñoz has campaigned on behalf of entrepreneurs, while working with governments and high-level stakeholders to try and supercharge progress towards Net Zero.

It’s a CV which puts many comparable multi-hyphenates to shame, and Muñoz isn't slowing down. Most recently, he partnered with Nigel Topping, a fellow UN High-Level Climate Champion, to found Ambition Loop, a Chile-based NGO that hopes to help climate startups and governments work together. The first step? Looking beyond the traditional centers of innovation.

“We mapped the voices in [UN] climate discussions, and more than 80 percent had headquarters in the Global North, and most of them in Washington, London, or Geneva,” says Muñoz. “We’re missing the voices from the emerging economies. Those are the communities confronting the crisis. How much of the knowledge can come from them?”

For Muñoz, the question is more than about simply elevating voices. Looking beyond Silicon Valley and Europe by extension means looking towards different types of ideas—simple, scalable, and, he says, often focused on some of humanity’s most urgent challenges. “Topics that are not necessarily the first that spring to mind when it comes to solutions required in the Global North.”

This was my second time traveling with GK to a COP conference. This year was different from Cop25, in Spain, since there was a pavilion just for youth which was nice but in a sense segregating. It's like there's a kids table vs the adult table where we are yet not allowed into. During Cop25 there wasn't much youth voice but in Egypt, there are still too many closed doors to us, it truly isn't fair. Also it was an adventure trying to find most events because it was so much bigger this year which was so exciting. We shouldn't have youth panels if there isn't a diplomat listening in the room. As nice as it is to talk, who's really listening? COP27 isn't a waste of time because if we keep showing up it'll definitely make a difference, so we can't lose hope. There also needs to be clarification on what age is youth because entering some of these youth events, there were people who are 25. I don't think they know what a teenager is about to face or what they're possibly going through. When you're 21 or 22 you experience life differently by being in college so it's different perspectives.

We chased after John Kerry and watched him do his interview. It was fun!

My favorite part of the whole time in Egypt was sharing my opinion on the panel called partnership for sustainable development goals. I finally felt like I was being heard. There isn't enough hispanic representation or youth representation. It also allowed me to connect with other youth who feel the same way.

The weather in Egypt was so hot during the day, I wonder how hot is hell because this felt like it! I got to know Mohamed better and bonding with him was extremely fun! I got to learn a little bit of Arabic and I am truly nailing it. I am extremely inspired to take an Arabic class for college and studying abroad in the gulf coast. Riding on camels was an interesting experience, they are so tall and it is definitely not the same as riding a horse. Camels terrify me.

One skill that is truly important in Egypt was learning how to negotiate at the old market. The power of walking out is real guys. I got the price I was willing to pay afterwards.

Climat : les jeunes manifestants peuvent-ils encore peser sur les négociations pendant les COP ?

Depuis les grandes manifestations organisées à Madrid (COP25) et de Glasgow (COP26), les jeunes semblent de moins en moins audibles à l’occasion des grandes messes onusiennes sur le climat. Pourquoi ?

Licypriya Kangujam

Licypriya Kangujam è la più giovane attivista al mondo, a dodici anni ha già incontrato i grandi della terra e partecipato a innumerevoli conferenze sul clima, in tutto il pianeta.

Dal 2018 conduce una campagna per il clima in India con lo scopo di far approvare nuove leggi per frenare gli elevati livelli di inquinamento e rendere obbligatoria la sensibilizzazione nelle scuole.

È nata il 2 ottobre 2011 nello stato di Manipur, uno dei più poveri dell’India, in una famiglia di etnia Meitei.

Ha iniziato a far sentire la sua voce per combattere il cambiamento climatico e la riduzione del rischio di catastrofi, quando aveva soltanto sette anni.

Dopo aver partecipato, insieme a suo padre, a una conferenza delle Nazioni Unite sui disastri in Mongolia, è iniziata la sua battaglia per la salvaguardia del futuro. Ha fondato il Child Movement, organismo globale per la giustizia climatica, attivo anche contro la povertà e a sostegno dei bambini vittime di conflitti e, da allora, ha cominciato a viaggiare per portare avanti la sua lotta.

Ha partecipato al Forum dei partner dell’UNESCO 2019 a Luanda, in Angola, dove ha parlato del cambiamento climatico davanti a importanti esponenti di vari paesi del mondo. 

Le sue non sono solo parole, ma anche e soprattutto fatti, dalla raccolta della plastica sulle rive del Gange, uno dei fiumi più inquinati al mondo, a quella della rimozione della spazzatura che circondava il Taj Mahal, diventata virale sui social. Alla base della sua battaglia c’è la volontà di far conoscere a un pubblico sempre più vasto il messaggio che vuole trasmettere e sensibilizzare le nuovissime generazioni sulla questione climatica.

Non sono certo mancate polemiche e minacce, l’India è uno dei paesi più inquinati al mondo, e il negazionismo sul cambiamento climatico è molto diffuso.

La voce di questa giovane dissidente, più che un invito sembra un grido d’aiuto. Ha preso l’abitudine di girare con una sua invenzione, collaudata con l’aiuto di un professore dell’Istituto Indiano per la Tecnologia, che chiama Sufuki, ovvero survival kit for the future (kit di sopravvivenza per il futuro). Un cubo di plexiglass trasparente con dentro una piantina in un vaso: un oggetto simbolico che ci ricorda la fragilità della nostra vita, che dipende dall’ambiente in cui viviamo, ma anche la necessità di agire immediatamente.

Alla COP25, la Conferenza delle Nazioni Unite sui cambiamenti climatici in Cile, ha presentato un memorandum “a nome dell’infanzia del mondo“.

Nel 2020 ha pubblicato una lettera ai partecipanti al World Economic Forum con Greta Thunberg, Luisa Neubauer, Isabelle Axelsson e Loukina Tille, invitando aziende, banche e governi a cessare di sovvenzionare i combustibili fossili. Nello stesso anno è stata la stella nascente dell’Earth Day Network di Washington nel 2020. Ha condotto una campagna per rendere obbligatorie nelle scuole le lezioni sul cambiamento climatico, proposta accolta dal governo del Gujarat che ha incluso il tema nell’istruzione scolastica.Numerosi i riconoscimenti ricevuti, nonostante la sua giovanissima età.A soli nove anni era già intervenuta a sei TEDx ricevendo ovazioni e plausi generali.

Con parole semplici e dirette, la giovane Licypriya Kangujam, spiega qual è il suo sogno e invita ogni persona a fare semplici gesti: lasciare a casa le auto e prendere le bici, rimpiazzare le centrali a carbone e termiche con energia rinnovabile e fare in modo che tutti i bambini e bambine del mondo abbiano aria buona da respirare, acqua sana da bere, un pianeta pulito sul quale vivere, convinta che da piccoli gesti nascono grandi cambiamenti.

“Possiamo cambiare noi stessi, e così cambiamo la nostra famiglia, che cambia il quartiere, che cambia la comunità, che cambia la nazione, e questo cambia il mondo” ha dichiarato in uno dei suoi tanti interventi in giro per il mondo.

La foto che la raffigura con un cartello con su scritto a mano ‘Abbandonate i combustibili fossili. Salvate il pianeta e il nostro futuro’ ha fatto il giro del mondo ed è stata l’emblema della Conferenza Onu sull’ambiente, Cop28, tenutasi a Dubai dal 30 novembre al 12 dicembre 2023. La sua entrata ha interrotto la “sessione di alto livello” dei negoziatori. Quando la polizia l’ha accompagnata fuori, è scoppiato un applauso fragoroso. Poco dopo, però, la presidenza del vertice ha presentato una bozza del principale documento conclusivo che va in senso opposto rispetto alle attese dei tanti e tante giovani giunti a Dubai per chiedere ai leader un’autentica transizione energetica.
