— Azioni per la pace e il clima a Glasgow —
#NoWarNoWarming
Dall'1 al 12 novembre 2021, Glasgow ospiterà una delle conferenze più significative al mondo su ambiente e cambiamenti climatici, nota come COP26. La COP26 non deve passare senza che i leader mondiali si occupino dei massicci danni climatici causati dalla guerra e dai preparativi per la guerra.
Le organizzazioni per la pace in tutta la Scozia e in tutto il mondo chiedono azioni per la pace, il disarmo e la demilitarizzazione, compresa la completa fine delle armi nucleari. Senza questo, non ci sarà alcuna possibilità di porre fine alla distruzione ambientale, né alcuna speranza di ridurre le emissioni di gas serra al livello necessario per affrontare l'emergenza climatica.

Petizioni e lettere aperte
Petizione: Chiedere che i governi si impegnino a tagli significativi delle emissioni alla COP26
Ci sono segnali che alcuni paesi potrebbero impegnarsi a ridurre le emissioni militari di gas serra alla COP26 di novembre. Questo invito all'azione dell'Osservatorio dei conflitti e dell'ambiente definisce la portata di ciò che questi impegni dovrebbero includere ed è aperto alla firma delle organizzazioni prima e durante la COP.

Petizione: Smettere di escludere l'inquinamento militare dagli accordi sul clima
Come risultato delle richieste dell'ultima ora fatte dal governo degli Stati Uniti durante i negoziati del trattato di Kyoto del 1997, le emissioni militari di gas serra sono state esentate dai negoziati sul clima. Questa tradizione è continuata e deve cessare.
