Suhain: Israel's occupation blocks climate justice
A report has indicated that the Israeli occupation poses the biggest obstacle to achieving climate justice in Palestine. It controls and depletes natural resources, imposes a blockade, and exerts financial extortion. The head of the Environmental Quality Authority emphasized that the occupation hampers efforts to confront the impacts of climate change and jeopardizes progress in sustainable development, particularly through land confiscation, construction bans, and movement restrictions. These measures hinder youth-led initiatives and climate solutions. He also pointed out that the occupation’s crimes in the Gaza Strip have caused an unprecedented humanitarian and environmental catastrophe, requiring coordinated national and youth efforts for reconstruction. There is also a strong emphasis on the importance of international funding and technology to support adaptation and mitigation projects, ensuring active participation of the most vulnerable groups.
