"Just transition principles require community-driven solutions which are the opposite of all these 'net-zero' scams proposed at the COP."Frontline climate campaigners on Wednesday reiterated demands for a just transition to a post-carbon economy and for eschewing false solutions to a worsening planetary emergency as the activists prepare to travel to the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Egypt later this week.
The Just Transition Alliance, along with Central Florida Jobs with Justice, Familias Unidas por la Justicia, and United Steelworkers Local 675 will take a delegation of community organizers to participate in COP27, which begins Sunday in the Sinai resort city of Sharm El-Sheikh. "The just transition worker delegation will bring the voices of workers from different sectors of the economy, and that is exciting because we will have the opportunity to strategize together about how to build solidarity among workers and build a collective analysis to share with our communities," Edgar Franks, an organizer with Familias Unidas por la Justicia, said in a statement.
"Beware of corporate co-optation of the U.N. agenda," he added, arguing that"just transition principles require community-driven solutions which are the opposite of all these 'net-zero' scams proposed at the COP."
