🙏 THANK YOU to all of you who took action against the European shark fin trade! 🇪🇺🦈 Sharks are on the agenda of the European Union. However, we must keep the citizen and scientific pressure so the ban remains on it: indeed, the recent EU elections with the far right - not exactly environment-friendly people - gaining ground could jeopardise the process. Make sure the EU hears we want a #FinBanNow! ✅We are confident that the outcome of the current impact assessment for a #FinBanNow will prove that there is no alternative to a legally binding trade ban! It is now up to the European Commission and European Parliament to decide whether Europe remains part of the problem or becomes part of the solution, and not to listen to the untruthful arguments of the (over)fishing lobbies. 👉🇪🇺 Stay tuned! 👉🦈 And mark you calendar: 14 July is Shark Awareness Day!

Rounding off the week in (windy) Vienna and the meeting of UNCITRAL: United Nations Commission on International Trade Law WGIII on Investor-State Dispute Settlement Reform. This is an amazing room. Yes, deliberations are painstakingly slow at times but in the end, dialogues lead to consensus, also in seemingly impossible gridlocks. When international headlines tell us the world is all about conflict, rooms like this tell a different story. The multilateral system quietly toiling away, going about its daily business. It’s kind of cool. Our engagement in UNCITRAL Working-Group III is part of our advocacy for enhanced alignment of international trade and investment law with global climate goals. Another example of what we do in this space is available here (spoiler alert: it’s about our new book!) https://lnkd.in/dB9tPMhT #climatechange #uncitral

Nice analysis of linking the UK ETS to the EU ETS - which is much needed I think, not least as a preliminary step to avoid CBAM problems.
Linking the UK and EU Emissions Trading Systems (ETS) could boost UK-EU #climate cooperation, address #trade issues at the Irish border and deliver economic benefits. But it won't be easy – UK alignment with EU methodologies and political will are crucial on both sides. Emily Lydgate
