Corporate
lobbyists for Big Ag and dirty energy have a clear

Why Are 300 Big Agriculture
Lobbyists Allowed to Attend and Influence the UN's
Climate Change
Conference? | | |
Vladimir,
Cop30, run
by the UN, is the world's largest global conference to
fight climate change. So why is the UN allowing
lobbyists for giant corporations — including for Big
Agriculture and fossil fuels — to participate and
actively impede negotiations?
The UN has
released its provisional list of delegates attending the
conference. Upwards of 300 people who will be
attending are lobbyists for factory farms, fertilizer
producers, and other big agriculture corporations.
Meat and dairy lobbyists made up the largest
proportion.
Research has continually shown that
the agricultural industry is to blame for around 1/4
to 1/3 of all emissions in the world, and the 45
biggest meat- and dairy-producing companies combined
emit around as many greenhouse gases as the country
of Saudi Arabia.
These UN climate conferences
are supposed to be places where world leaders and civil
society representatives come together to protect our
collective, global future. Why would it ever allow
lobbyists from the very companies that are destroying
our planet and our health? These are the very same
industries that are hurting us and trying to block
life-saving improvements to our world.
Luckily, we're
not alone in our outrage and bewilderment. Activists
from around the world are calling for the UN to ban
lobbyists with both the fossil fuel industry and "Big
Ag" from all future climate summits. We must amplify this call!

P.S. These
corporations have a clear conflict of interest and have
every incentive to derail climate talks. They are not on
our side! We cannot allow short-sighted, profit-grabbing
corporations to ruin our world any further! Sign the
petition. |
