The climate crisis is outrunning us. Meanwhile, fossil fuel interests keep making a killing - while killing our planet. But we cannot surrender. In fact, we must fight harder. We are in the fight for our lives & for our children’s future. And we must win. #COP31

🧵 The impact of conflict does not end when the fighting stops. Unexploded ordnance and other explosive remnants of war continue to pose a threat to civilians, including children, in south Lebanon.

🕊️ “Cooperating gives us the means to exercise our sovereignty.” In a message to the Paris Peace Forum, UN Secretary-General @antonioguterres makes the case for cooperation: no economy is safe from the shocks of war, no border can hold back rising seas, no firewall can protect us from an algorithm gone rogue. No power can meet these challenges alone. 👉 For the years ahead, we must: silence the guns and protect civilians; reform global institutions; accelerate a just transition away from fossil fuels; govern artificial intelligence. 📹 Many sessions will be livestreamed on our YouTube channel : youtube.com/@ParisPeaceForum… #PPF2026 #ChildSummit

The @UN was born of a moment of shared resolve – the resolve of peoples who understood that cooperation is the highest expression of sovereignty. In a world that is splitting apart, let’s live up to their courage, build a networked multipolar world grounded in international law & secure a future worthy of our children. #ParisPeaceForum
