Dear John,
Hello from Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt and the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP27).
Allow me to catch you up on what's been happening here in Egypt. As Americans were preparing to go to the polls, diplomats from across the world were arriving in Sharm El-Sheik to discuss
how the world can come together to address the climate crisis.
▶️ WATCH
Sierra Club President Ramon Cruz joined me to preview what's at stake at COP27. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=e1c54494b64878cd9975a709c5b9aba9282416eebf47d2d13bc087e237117202964b4f098626236
b3606df9e6b8fc2bd4db0f49c6144ecf3>
The conference began with a breakthrough when the topic of loss and damage was added to the official agenda for the first time at a climate conference.1 Loss and damage refers to irreparable
harm caused by climate change – loss of life, cultural sites, property, agricultural sites, and entire communities due to sea level rise, flooding, and drought. Vulnerable countries
have long called on the wealthy nations that fueled the crisis to take greater responsibility for addressing these losses.
While adding an item to an agenda doesn't guarantee action, it will allow for long-overdue discussions on the topic to move forward at the summit. More than 10,000 Sierra Club members
and supporters like you have been asking for progress on this issue in the lead-up to the conference and we're hopeful that this breakthrough will lead to more significant progress.
If you haven't yet taken action on loss and damage, please consider doing so now.
📢 TAKE ACTION
Tell President Biden and U.S. climate negotiators: The world must address the mounting losses and damages due to climate change. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=e1c54494b64878cdfae21422402157
fba42eacba639c009c0a88213527ef1e29925e0464c8562a38269a3c29071b53aeb9adad5837fa6897ed39a006f6bdb45d>
President Biden addressed the summit on Friday, highlighting the progress we have made on climate action in the last couple of years. With the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act,
the United States can make significant progress toward meeting our climate commitments under the Paris Agreement, reducing emissions by 40 percent by the end of the decade.2 Biden also
announced a new EPA rule that will improve oil and gas monitoring, cutting potent methane emissions and protecting communities from pollution.3
This progress on cutting emissions in the United States is important, but we must also do more to mobilize the world to address the climate crisis with the speed and urgency it demands.
That should include debt forgiveness to the Global South, fully funding global climate funds, and working with other countries to see that they meet and exceed their climate commitments.
Leaders from climate vulnerable countries like the island nation of Vanuatu are at the forefront of efforts to demand more swift and significant progress on addressing climate change.

There's a sense of urgency here among grassroots leaders that time is running short for the world to act on the climate crisis. The Paris Agreement provided a framework for the world
to address the issue of climate change, but progress toward meeting those climate commitments has been too slow.
For this summit to be a success, world leaders must heed the calls of grassroots leaders and step up their ambition on a whole range of climate issues. With your help, we'll continue
to demand that the United States does its part.
Sincerely,
Cherelle Blazer
Senior Director
