A little more than two weeks after the end of COP27, the Eurasian Climate Brief team takes stock on what the summit in Sharm El-Cheikh has achieved, and where it fell short: How significant is the deal on the ‘loss and damage’ fund, aimed at compensating developing countries for irreversible climate impacts? And what progress has made, if any, in the fight to phase out fossil fuels? Needless to say that all of this is to be read against the background of the Russian attack on Ukraine, the terrible consequences of which influenced much of this conference.
We discuss this with Svitlana Romanko, an environmental lawyer and the founder of the Ukrainian NGO Razom We Stand. Svitlana will also brief us on her powerful protests and campaigns in the past months, from calls for a total ban on Russian fossil fuels imports to confrontations with Total’s CEO and Russian delegates.

The Eurasian Climate Brief is a podcast dedicated to climate issues in the region stretching from Eastern Europe to Russia down to the Caucasus and Central Asia.
