TUC Events “Bold Solutions – COP27 (UN Climate Change Conference), Trade Unions, the Climate crisis, a just transition to climate safety and workers’ rights, economic and energy crises and how we fix them.”

The TUC is organising two events – one in person and one online, coinciding with the COP 27 (UN Climate Change Conference), and bringing trade union and climate activists together to gather solutions – How do we combine our struggles for an equitable cost of living, a just transition to climate safety and workers’ rights? The TUC states that we urgently need a politics that builds a safe climate for future generations, a rapid and just transition alongside quality jobs, and an economy that rewards work, not wealth.

Note: COP27 is the 2022 United Nations Climate Change Conference. The conference is formally known as the ‘United Nations Climate Change Conference of the Parties’ and this is its 27th iteration. Given that the official title is a mouthful, it is shortened to COP27 which is short for the 27th Conference of the Parties of the UNFCCC. It’s being held from 6 November until 18 November 2022in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt.
