Por qué es necesaria nuestra unidad a nivel mundial para combatir el cambio climático

A statement by Friends of the Earth International calling for a global, people-led transition away from 'dirty energy'—including fossil fuels, nuclear power, and large-scale hydroelectric projects—to combat the planetary emergency of climate change.

• The document asserts that the world is facing a planetary emergency, noting that devastating natural disasters in 2017 occurred with only a one-degree temperature increase, while the Paris Agreement could allow for warming of at least three to four degrees.
• Fossil fuel infrastructure continues to expand despite its role as the primary cause of global warming; specifically, over 1,600 new coal plants are planned or under construction across 62 countries.
• The author categorizes non-fossil fuel energy sources as 'dirty energy' if they are corporate-led or harmful to the environment. This includes nuclear energy, which is described as dangerous and costly, and large-scale hydroelectric projects, which are linked to land grabbing, the loss of water and food sovereignty, and the emission of approximately one billion tons of greenhouse gases annually from decomposing vegetation in reservoirs.
• There is a significant disparity in climate responsibility: 10% of the global population is responsible for 50% of emissions, whereas the poorest 50% are responsible for only 10%. The document argues that wealthy nations must lead emission reductions and fund sustainable development in the Global South.
• The document advocates for a 'just energy revolution' based on decentralized, community-led energy, agroecology, and community forest management, citing successful fracking moratoria in regions such as Victoria (Australia), New York state, Ireland, France, Scotland, Bulgaria, and Canadian provinces.
