Paul Polman praises historic Paris Agreement

The world demanded climate action and the international community has responded. Today’s agreement demonstrates without question that it is possible for us to come together in common cause to address the greatest challenges we face, preventing tragedy for the many millions of people vulnerable to the effects of climate change and securing the economic prosperity of the world in the 21st century.

The leadership shown by the French and Peruvian governments in integrating action by cities, regions, businesses and civil society - alongside the formal negotiations over the past year - has created an unprecedented movement of private sector action in support of an ambitious global deal.

Red line = A minimal necessity for a just and livable planet. More specifically: Sustainable energy transformation / Justice for impacted people / 
 
The right to food and water.

In order to avoid dangerous climate change we know we must keep at least 80% of known fossil fuel reserves in the ground. We must completely decarbonise our economy before 2050. Keeping these fuels in the ground is our movement’s red line. A minimal necessity for a just and livable planet.

On Twitter People are Mixed but most are happy!!
