@antonioguterres kicks-off the summit after a film chock full of strong youth voices (& dramatic trailer music)

Already one of my favourites of the day from @antonioguterres:
" #ClimateAction is the barometer of leadership" - now this should be the geopolitical benchmark for 2021 - for the #Biden , the, , the #G7, #G20 and beyond.

So - strangely phrased but @BorisJohnson did just announce that the UK will end all direct taxpayer support for #fossilfuel projects overseas - i.e. NO MORE UK export finance for oil, gas & coal - details to follow https://twitter.com/LouBurrows7/status/1337765532510998528
After a slightly luke-warm speech by @EmmanuelMacron (it's a good thing the EU agreed that new 2030 target yesterday) - Chile and Italy bring some fresh wind
Chile invites @JoeBiden to join the #ClimateAmbitionAlliance
& Italy announces EUR 30 million for the Adaptation Fund

Following weeks of tealeaf reading Xi speech was UNDERWHELMING
no significant update in CO2 emissions peaking year (still "before 2030")
nothing on non-CO2 gases
nothing on coal or int'l coal finance
wind & solar target is new & interesting https://twitter.com/byfordt/status/1337779895863136256

B+ for the when it should have been their day in the
2030 target stands up pretty well toscrutiny caveats around "net" notwithstanding
nothing on adaptation or finance? a bold forward agenda? Instead carbon pricing alliances? Did no-one tell them can't play ball?
