 -of-cop26/\n\n## COP is failing. Biden has failed. It's up to us. Boston w
 ill be underwater.\n### Location: JFK Federal Building\n### Date and Time:
  Monday November 15th at 3 pm\n\nIt is clear that COP26 will fail. The glo
 bal north never had any intention of negotiating in good faith to rapidly 
 decarbonize their economies. Biden has failed. We are approaching Bush era
  levels of issuing permits for drilling on public land. He has failed to d
 eclare a Climate Emergency despite calls from a plethora of Indigenous Lea
 ders and Climate Justice Organizers.The so-called "climate president" has 
 not stopped the Line 3 pipeline\, Line 5 pipeline\, Mountain Valley pipeli
 ne\, and the Dakota Access pipeline.\n\nIn August\, Rebels associated with
  Scientists Rebellion Spain leaked a portion of the 2022 IPCC report. We a
 re warned that greenhouse gas emissions must peak within 4 years to preven
 t climate breakdown. High-income countries are producing 10 times the amou
 nt of emissions as the poorest countries. \n\nThe entire world needs to ha
 lve emissions by 2030 and reach net-zero by 2050 if we want to stay at 1.5
  C. We are told\, "Delayed action increases challenges to both economic an
 d societal feasibility after 2030". Our current Paris Climate Agreement ta
 rgets will not prevent this breakdown. \n\nGHG emissions will increase by 
 11% with respect to 2010 levels even if every country makes their Paris Cl
 imate Agreement targets. COP26 will set the next 5 years of emissions targ
 ets\, but we know it won't be the radical change needed to halt runaway gl
 obal heating. Large chunks of Boston will be underwater even if we cap glo
 bal heating at 1.5 C\, never mind at 3 C (where the Paris Climate Agreemen
 t is likely to take us if all signers make their targets). \n\nThe seas ar
 e rising and so are we. The political and electoral process cannot save us
 .
