Members of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, Women and Gender Constituency issue a powerful statement at the close of the Paris climate negotiations – calling out failures and policies not commensurate to the level of climate crisis faced, or responsive enough to the realities of climate impacts, especially on women and frontline and marginalized communities worldwide. The Constituency points out that despite promised to stay under 1.5 degrees warming, current commitments measure up to 3.2 – 3.7 degrees rise; and declares it’s unwavering commitment to continued advocacy to push for gender equality, climate justice and real action by world governments.
