📢Voices on #ClimateReparations4AfricaNow
Why must we talk about #ClimateDebt?
Participants grappled with the causes and drivers of the #climatecrisis & who bears the historical responsibilities for the environmental catastrophes & destruction 🔥we witness across Southern Africa
📢Day 2 of the 1st Southern Africa Convening on #Debt 💵and #Reparations where participants discussed the historical responsibilities & importance of putting the issue of #ClimateDebt on the table✊🌍

#AfricaIsDue
#ReparationsNOW!
Rebecca Thissen from @CANIntl We need to be aware of the resistance to the recognition of the #climatedebt by the GN countries. We are not going to meet any #SDGs by focusing on private investment in climate finance. It's by combining our struggles that we're going to win.
13/22. 🤔What else happened today?
🌄This morning started with an action that saw the global #ClimateJustice ⚖️ movement come together to call for rich polluting countries 🤑 and companies🏭 to pay their #ClimateDebt 🏭including for #LossAndDamage🔥.
...yet, they fund wars, genocide and fossil fuels.
🐴This "Trojan Horse" is present in every rooms, corridors, side events putting profits before people, increasing debt in the Global South and inequalities globally.

📢“Don't tell us there is no money for #ClimateFinance, when there is money for war and genocide.”
“#ClimateJustice can only be achieved if those who contributed the most to the #ClimateCrisis provide new, additional, direct finance. We urge developed countries to pay up their #ClimateDebt.” on the Belém Roadmap to 1.3T 💰at the #JuneClimateMeetings.
@rebeccathissen.bsky.social on the Global North playbook we're seeing unfolding across various spaces. There is enough money to address climate and development challenges, it is a matter of political will.

"Global North continue feeding the narrative that there is not public funding available - when trillions are subsidising fossil fuels industry, this is hypocrisy!" @rebeccathissen.bsky.social

🌍 It's time to break the chains of debt.
At #FFD4, countries must push for a UN Sovereign Debt Convention - to deliver immediate debt relief and finally fix a broken system built by creditors, for creditors.

photorealistic AI-generated image shows an older farmer standing in a cracked, drought-stricken field. He wears a worn shirt and headscarf, looking solemn. A wooden sign next to him reads “Loan Office,” with rusted shackles hanging beside it. The dry earth stretches to the horizon, hinting at climate disaster. This image is AI-generated for public awareness.
Today’s underrepresented issue:
Imagine surviving a climate disaster—only to be jailed for the debt it caused.
From Sri Lanka to Honduras, farmers are falling into “climate debt prisons.”
The planet burns, and the poor pay twice.

Wealthy countries must rise to the occasion – not with more financial engineering, but by strengthening the public tools that serve the common good. Anything less isn’t climate action. It’s exploitation with a green label.

[5/5] La présidence sud-africaine du G20 en 2025 est une opportunité pour exiger la reconnaissance et le paiement de la dette climatique. Une stratégie africaine unifiée est nécessaire pour obtenir des subventions, non des prêts, et bâtir des villes résilientes. #geography #ClimateDebt
Bangui - Ville capitale sur la rivière Oubangui, République centrafricaine
[4/5] L’Afrique connaît l’urbanisation la plus rapide de l’histoire. Sans investissements climatiques adéquats, ses villes risquent d’aggraver les inégalités et la vulnérabilité. Le financement direct reste rare et biaisé vers des États, non les villes. #geography #ClimateDebt
[3/5] En 2024, 34 pays africains ont dépensé plus pour rembourser la dette que pour la santé ou l’éducation. 60% de leur dette est détenue par des créanciers privés. Les prêts climat contribuent à une crise sociale plus qu’ils ne soutiennent l’adaptation. #geography #ClimateDebt
[2/5] Les pays riches ont utilisé jusqu’à 70% du "budget climatique" mondial pour leur développement. Ils doivent 36.000 Mds $ à l’Afrique, selon Action Aid. Or, seuls 10% des fonds climat visent l’adaptation urbaine, souvent non rentable pour les prêteurs. #geography #ClimateDebt
[1/5] L’Afrique subsaharienne, responsable de <4% des émissions mondiales, reçoit seulement 5% des financements climat. Pourtant, elle devra loger 1 milliard de personnes d’ici 2050, dans un contexte d’urbanisation rapide et de risques accrus liés au climat. #geography #ClimateDebt

Nothing can be ‘green’ or ‘eco-friendly’ until the ecological debt for the historical and ongoing exploitation driving environmental collapse is paid.

4/ ⚖️ Developed nations, with a historical responsibility for climate change, face pressure to pay their dues. But negotiations show divisions between rich and poor nations, as the agreement failed to set concrete steps for fossil fuel transition. #FossilFuel #ClimateDebt

Nachtrag: weil ich gestern in der Tagesschau das Wort "Geberländer" gehört habe, als es um die reichen Länder geht, diejenigen, die über Jahrhunderte die Atmo zugemüllt haben: *wir* sind hier nicht Geberländer, wir sind die Schuldner in dem Kontext.
