COP 28 : des pistes pour un traitement médiatique à la hauteur des enjeux

The document argues that media coverage of COP events often focuses disproportionately on failure and inefficiency while ignoring the influence of fossil fuel lobbies, the role of NGOs, and the historical tensions between developed and developing nations. It outlines the key objectives of COP 28, including the first global climate action stocktake and the operationalization of the loss and damage fund, and counters myths regarding the utility of COPs and the role of technological innovation in solving the climate crisis.

• Media coverage of previous COPs has been disproportionately focused on their perceived inefficiency and disappointing results, often ignoring that these events are rare spaces for global multilateralism and the creation of detailed international climate policies.
• The influence of fossil fuel lobbies is a significant but often invisible barrier to ambitious resolutions; for example, COP 27 hosted 636 fossil fuel lobbyists, which was more than any single national delegation.
• There is a fundamental tension in negotiations between developed countries, who emphasize exiting fossil fuels, and developing countries, who prioritize North-to-South financing mechanisms and historical responsibilities.
• The document refutes the idea that technological innovation or carbon offsets are the primary climate solutions, asserting that the only real solution is the reduction of emissions, as no technology has yet achieved a systemic substitution of carbon-based production.
• The official agenda for COP 28 includes conducting the first global stocktake of climate action, establishing a local climate action summit, defining a new quantified collective goal for post-2025 transition financing, and implementing the loss and damage fund for vulnerable countries.
