On November 5, Osprey Orielle Lake, WECAN Executive Director, spoke to Parliament Ministers from around the world and other global leaders at the GLOBE COP26 Legislators Summit held at the Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh, Scotland.

In her speech, Osprey called for no more false solutions, and advocated for climate justice, community-led solutions, Indigenous rights, keeping fossil fuels in the ground, and further inclusion of frontline leadership and women in decision making processes.

Right now, current country commitments bring global warming far past the 1.5 degree target laid out in the Paris Climate Agreement. Osprey called for an end to false solutions and presented our Call to Action that was recently delivered to governments during the UNGA by Global Women’s Assembly for Climate Justice. It is a call to action from women and feminist around the world representing millions of people outlining in explicit detail what can be done to meet the 1.5 degree target with already existing climate justice frameworks.

The climate change ship has left the harbor, and what confronts us is the urgent need to accomplish multiple goals simultaneously: reducing and then eliminating greenhouse gas pollution; rapidly scaling up drawdown efforts by returning carbon to the soil; and building the resilience and adaptive capacity in our societal systems to face the multi-pronged crises coming our way. And we must do it all with an equity lens at the center. It’s a tall order, but it’s non-optional. Luckily, there are people and projects all over the country and the world providing effective pathways forward for integrated climate action, using “whole problem” approaches.

By leveraging collaboration across multiple sectors, these visionary leaders are outlining revolutionary blueprints for the next wave of essential work we need to do.
