Key insights
- Friends of the Earth International argues that the agreement expected from the Paris climate conference will likely fail to prevent catastrophic climate change, which in turn will exacerbate poverty, hunger, biodiversity loss, and violence.
- The organization criticizes the French government for restricting civil liberties and cancelling planned climate justice mobilizations scheduled for the first two weeks of December in response to the attacks in Paris.
- The statement asserts that addressing climate change justly is the most critical action for peace-building and calls for the reclamation of democratic decision-making from corporate influence.
