The CapGlobalCarbon team will host an official side-event at the COP21 in Paris. Our core-team member Mike Sandler just received this exciting message:

Dear side event applicant,

Congratulations! Your side event application has successfully passed the selection process for the 21st session of the Conference of the Parties (COP 21) and the 11th session of the Conference of the Parties serving as the meeting of the Parties to the Kyoto Protocol (CMP 11) taking place from 30 November to 11 December 2015 in Paris – Le Bourget, France. Your side event has thus been included into the official side event programme.

We are collaborating with the Sequoia Foundation, Corporación Centro de Estudios de Derecho, Justicia y Sociedad (DEJUSTICIA) and Feasta. Our event is announced as:

Climate Justice: Coal and Human Rights in the South, Community Choice Energy, Global Carbon Pricing
Affected communities are often forgotten in high-level talks on climate action. We highlight human rights impacts by the coal sector in the South, Community Choice Energy to speed a transition to renewables, and establish a Global Climate Trust to “CapGlobalCarbon” and return funds to people.

Please subscribe to our mail list to stay updated on the exact time and location of this event.
